The Toronto Raptors are reportedly monitoring Milwaukee Bucks center Myles Turner as a potential acquisition should the Bucks undergo a roster overhaul.
According to Sportsnet's Michael Grange, league sources indicate Toronto's interest is contingent on a hypothetical Giannis Antetokounmpo trade that would trigger a Bucks fire sale.
Raptors' Frontcourt Plans
The Raptors have long sought a franchise center, having previously pursued Domantas Sabonis.
Turner, who stands 6-foot-11, averaged 11.9 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks in 71 games for Milwaukee last season.
Financially, Toronto could include center Jakob Poeltl in a trade package to match Turner's salary.
Turner is under contract through 2028-29 with an annual salary exceeding $26 million over the next three seasons, including a player option in the final year.
The Raptors finished fifth in the Eastern Conference last season and are looking to strengthen their frontcourt.
The Bucks' future remains uncertain amid ongoing speculation about Antetokounmpo's tenure in Milwaukee.
