Nets also interested in trading for Pascal Siakam
Marc Stein: The Nets have also been described to me as a team with Pascal Siakam interest … although the signals entering the final week of trade season have reflected a reluctance from Toronto to this point to make Siakam available.

“Make it so it isn’t a debate” — that’s how Pascal Siakam reacted to his all-star snub as the Raptors learn the hard way this year that team success predicts everything else:

More on this storyline
There remains hefty skepticism among league personnel that the Raptors will actually move All-Star forward Pascal Siakam this week despite interest from the Nets and other teams, sources said. Talented forward O.G. Anunoby has been the name that rival executives have monitored the most outside of VanVleet and Gary Trent Jr., and between Finney-Smith and Royce O’Neale, the Nets have clearly targeted two-way wings as reinforcements around Durant dating back to last summer. -via Yahoo!

Adrian Wojnarowski: Many conversations in the league are going through one team today: the Toronto Raptors. -via Twitter @wojespn / February 6, 2023
One of the teams Brooklyn has been most connected to is the Raptors, who have had trade talks with multiple teams involving Pascal Siakam and O.G. Anunoby. The Raptors had interest in Simmons in 2021 when the 76ers were shopping him. Though Scottie Barnes’s emergence would make Simmons a strange fit as they’re both non-shooters, he does count as a buy-low, high-value target who could restore his career in time. -via The Ringer / February 5, 2023
