Outside noise and other external distractions are the last things the Indiana Pacers need considering their recent success, but with the trade deadline looming by the day, fans should prepare themselves for the rumor mill to come out swinging even harder moving forward.

One team fans should closely monitor is the Toronto Raptors, who have been linked to the Pacers to some degree in the past. With their club struggling this season, a fire sale may not be out of the woods. We don’t need to resort to a guessing game as well, as reports have started surfacing about their asking price for some of their players.

The Indiana Pacers now have intel on the Raptors’ asking price for their players in a potential trade
