The Toronto Raptors are in the mix to acquire Kevin Durant from the Brooklyn Nets, but they are reportedly hoping to keep the reigning Rookie of the Year out of the deal, according to Michael Grange of Sportsnet.

“The Raptors have remained fixed on keeping rookie of the year Scottie Barnes out of any package they are offering,” Grange reported.

Barnes averaged 15.3 points, 7.5 rebounds and 1.1 steals per game after being drafted No. 4 last year. The 20-year-old impressed with his defense, while his offensive upside remains high even without a consistent outside shot at the moment.
