NBA TRADE DEADLINE

Raps give up Austin Daye for Nando De Colo

The Raptors were quiet on NBA trade deadline day, making a minor move on Thursday.

San Antonio has traded Nando De Colo to the Toronto Raptors for Austin Daye, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

The Raptors move of Austin Daye to acquire a combo guard in De Colo makes sense for Toronto who now have another backup point guard to join Greivis Vasquez.  The 6-5 guard brings playoff experience to Toronto, playing with the Spurs in 2012-13.

De Colo has played 26 games with the Spurs this season and averaged 4.3 ppg, 1.2 apg and 1.7 rpg.  Austin Daye played minimal minutes with the Raptors and just appeared in 8 games for Toronto.

Really gonna miss this guy.

Good move for Toronto? Let us know in the comments.
