In addition to the Lakers, Knicks and Nets, the Timberwolves, Warriors and Celtics are among the teams that have inquired about a deal with the Raptors for Lowry, league sources say. Raptors GM Masai Ujiri has been encouraged by the team's recent play, as Toronto has gone 9-3 since the trade with two of the losses coming against the Spurs But despite the Raptors' fourth-place status in the pitiful East, Ujiri is determined to take the long-term view. With the deadline less than seven weeks away, Ujiri is said to have multiple deals he could do for Lowry that would involve receiving an expiring contract in return or slotting him into another team's trade exception. Taking back future salary would come at a high price, i.e. a first-round pick.

Re: KEY NBA DATES & Who's hot in trade talks?
Hey Danny, how about going out there and trading for a top-flight center who's not damaged goods? Just look at this list, and you should be salivating.
Better still, how about trading away expiring contracts and draft picks for another shooting guard or power forward? You won't need those trading chips for a center anyway because Mr. Right will be awaiting you in the mid-teens of the draft. Right? Sure!
