WATCH ABOVE (December 2020): It wasn't exactly the reception that the "We the North" fanbase may have been expecting. But the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday night kicked off their 2020-2021 season in Tampa Bay as COVID-19 restrictions continue to preclude their playing in Toronto. – Dec 24, 2020

TORONTO — The Toronto Raptors have traded guard Norman Powell to the Portland Trail Blazers for guards Gary Trent Jr. and Rodney Hood.

A source confirmed the deal to The Canadian Press.

The source was granted anonymity because the deal has not been officially announced.

The NBA trade deadline is Thursday at 3 p.m. ET.

Powell is eligible to become a free agent next year if he declines his player option.

More to come.
