Carlos Morais is not a household name in North America, but he is a large part of the reason Angola has become one of the best teams in Africa. Morais, a point guard, led Angola to the AfroBasket championship this summer and was named tournament MVP averaging 15.9 points per game.
Now he’s going to get a look at life in the NBA.
The Toronto Raptors have invited Morais to their training camp, reports the Toronto Sun. This is a non-guaranteed contract.
It’s a longshot but he could potentially make the roster as Toronto cut loose veteran Quentin Richardson. Morais, Julyan Stone and Chris Wright will try to prove they deserve that spot.
