Report: Raptors' Chris Boucher, Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe, More Linked to NBA Trade Rumors

Teams searching for a big man prior to the Feb. 6 trade deadline should have several options to pursue.

According to NBA insider Jake Fischer, Toronto Raptors center Chris Boucher and the Brooklyn Nets' Day'Ron Sharpe are both on the trade market. Sacramento Kings forward Trey Lyles, Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards and New Orleans Pelicans big Daniel Theis are also expected to be available.

Kings shooting guard Kevin Huerter is a candidate to be moved as well, per Fischer.

Boucher has operated as a key bench piece for the Raptors throughout his career and opened the 2024-25 season in a reserve role once again. In 24 games, he's averaging 10.0 points, 4.7 rebounds and 0.8 blocks in 18 minutes per game while shooting 45.5 percent from the field.

He's also proven to be a capable threat from three-point territory, shooting 32.8 percent from behind the arc on 2.6 long-range attempts per game in his career.

Boucher has fallen out of Toronto's rotation as of late, and his upcoming free agency at the end of the season could increase the likelihood of a deal. At 31 years old, he also doesn't fit the timeline of a young Raptors squad.

Sharpe has shown promise throughout the first four years of his NBA career, but he could be moved after failing to sign to an extension with the Nets before the start of the regular season.

He's only made five appearances this year due to a hamstring issue, but he's proven to be effective at crashing the glass while showcasing his offensive upside. Sharpe owns career averages of 6.0 points and 5.3 rebounds in 13.3 minutes per game.

Fischer and NBA insider Marc Stein previously reported that the Kings were making Huerter and Lyles available as they attempt to rearrange the supporting cast around De'Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis.

Expect several centers to be on the move prior to the Feb. 6 deadline.
