Bruce Brown remains unbothered by trade rumors: "I was completely shocked last year when I got traded, so this year, it's whatever."
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Bruce Brown, earning $23 million annually, is at the center of trade chatter as his contract expires this summer. Despite the speculation, the 28-year-old remains unfazed.
"I've been in this situation the last two years, so if it happens, it does. If it doesn't, I'm happy to be here," Brown told The Star. "It's a business. I was completely shocked last year when I got traded, so this year, it's whatever."
He joined the Raptors in January as part of the trade that sent Pascal Siakam to the Indiana Pacers.
On Monday, Jake Fischer reported that the Raptors are highly motivated to trade Brown and his $23 million salary. This move aligns with the team's broader goal of maximizing their return on the Siakam deal.
Brown is an NBA champion with the Denver Nuggets in 2023.
