The Toronto Raptors and Washington Wizards have explored moving up into the top-3, sources tell Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer. The Charlotte Hornets own the No. 2 pick, while the Portland Trail Blazers are at No. 3.
Next week’s draft has a clear second tier behind Victor Wembanyama in Scoot Henderson and Brandon Miller.
The Raptors have a number of potential trade candidates in Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby, while the Wizards are gauging the trade market for Bradley Beal.
The New Orleans Pelicans have previously been linked with moving up for Henderson.
