But, the next question to counter that, is are they willing to risk dealing assets for a one-year rental? Similar to that of Kawhi?
The Raptors have the assets to be able to complete that deal, and are the unique situation willing to risk everything for one year. After Masai acquired Kawhi, they're all in on this year.
If BOS/PHI/LAL weren't interested in dealing for Kawhi, not much more for Butler. BKN/NYK/LAC don't have the attractive assets/players that the Raptors have to get a deal done -- maybe first round picks, but why would they risk that for one year, where Butler can still leave even after he's said he will sign an extension.
