An O.G. Anunoby trade is beginning to look like a very real possibility.

All the chatter surrounding Anunoby and the Toronto Raptors has made the 25-year-old forward the second most likely candidate in the NBA to be traded ahead of next month's trade deadline, according to oddsmakers at DraftKings. Anunoby sits at -500 to be dealt, implying an 83.3% likelihood Toronto moves its prized wing defender.

Only Jae Crowder of the Phoenix Suns who has yet to play a game this season due to a holdout has higher odds of being dealt, according to the sportsbook.

Toronto is expected to wait until the end of its West Coast road trip to finalize any decisions ahead of the deadline. The team will return home on Feb. 6 and is expected to use those three days before the Feb. 9 deadline to set a path forward.

The Raptors are reportedly taking calls on Anunoby who is currently sidelined with a left wrist sprain, Shams Charania told FanDuel TV.
