NBA Trade rumors 2016: Chris Bosh to go to Toronto Raptors; JR Smith to the Minnesota Timberwolves

The 2016–17 basketball season is drawing near, and the internet is rife with more speculations as to which players will be staying on their current teams and which players will find themselves being traded off to different ones. Numerous issues have been factoring in on the trade issue, like players not fulfilling their contracts or players having health condition issues, and discussions have been spreading online with how the teams should all act.

Rumors suggest that Chris Bosh may be moving on to the Toronto Raptors this coming season. Bosh had spent the first seven seasons of his careers with the Raptors before he moved on to Miami Heat, but this season may see him return to his home team.

It's possible that he will be involved with a trade between the Raptors and Miami Heat where Miami gets Patrick Patterson, Jared Sullinger, and Terrence Ross, and the Raptors will see the return of Bosh.

Bosh also hasn't been cleared to play yet, as he is reportedly having blood clotting problems, but some reports have spotted him practicing on the court, and he could very well be ready to play when the season kicks in.

Bosh averaged 19.1 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.4 assists per game in the last season.

In other news, JR Smith is said to be moving on to the Minnesota Timberwolves, and he is on a shortlist of veteran players which also include Rasual Butler and Dorrell Wright.

The team is currently filled with fresh players, the biggest name among them is rookie Kris Dunn, who is said to be up for rookie of the year, and the addition of some veteran players may see the team playing better than ever.

Who will be traded of next before the NBA 2016–2017 season begins? It seems fans need to stay tuned for official announcements regarding these trades.
