Toronto’s newest (and highest ever paid) Raptor
The Indiana Pacers and Raptors have agreed in principle to trade six-time all-star Jermaine O’Neal for TJ Ford, Rasho Nesterovic, and their 17th overall pick. Toronto’s Maceo Baston is also rumored to be included in the deal and Indiana’s 41st overall pick will be going to the Raptors.
Rumors began to swirl earlier this week before the deal apparently hit a snag when concerns over both players’ health was brought into question before talks picked up again shortly after.
John Hollinger of ESPN thinks the trade is beneficial to both teams
