Kawhi Leonard

TOR Forward #2

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

ESPN’s Shams Charania reports that the Raptors acquired Kawhi Leonard from the Raptors for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick and future draft capital.

The trade the Raptors put on hold in early July while the league investigated Leonard’s contract with the Clippers is coming to fruition. Regarding the draft capital, the Clippers will still receive two future first-round picks, one first-round pick swap and two second-round picks. When healthy, Leonard is one of the most valuable players in fantasy basketball, especially in category leagues. He has appeared in 65 games or more in two of the last three seasons. While fantasy managers will have to consider the occasional injury-management night, Leonard’s availability may not be as much of a concern as it was in past seasons.
Kawhi Leonard

LAC Forward #2

According to The Athletic, the trade that would send Kawhi Leonard to Toronto could be completed “in the coming days.”

The Clippers and Raptors agreed to a deal that would send Leonard to Toronto in exchange for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick and future draft compensation in July. However, an investigation into Leonard’s contract with the Clippers put those plans on hold. The Justice Department has opened its own investigation into the deal, but the NBA concluded its probe and penalized the Clippers on September 2. With Clippers governor Steve Ballmer accepting the ruling after initially vowing to fight, the door may now open for the Leonard trade to be completed soon. Kawhi was with the Raptors players in Miami for their minicamp last week but worked out individually because the trade wasn’t official.
Andre Jackson

TOR Guard #44

Raptors signed Andre Jackson Jr. to an Exhibit 10 contract.

The 36th overall pick in the 2023 draft, Jackson spent his first three NBA seasons in Milwaukee. While there were occasional moments when his athleticism was on display, the former UConn wing could not lock down consistent rotation minutes with the Bucks. In Toronto, he’ll compete for one of the team’s final roster spots when training camp opens in late September.
Trey Jemison

TOR Center #50

NBA insider Chris Haynes reports that the Raptors have signed Trey Jemison to a two-way contract.

Jemison has played for five different NBA teams in his three seasons, most recently spending the 2025-26 campaign with the Knicks on a two-way deal. The 6-foot-11 center appeared in 13 NBA games for the champs, averaging 6.3 minutes per game. While Toronto has experienced success in using its G League affiliate to develop players, Jemison is unlikely to be in a position to impact fantasy basketball next season.
Nate Bittle

TOR Center

Nate Bittle amassed 13 points (5-of-9 FGs), seven rebounds, three assists, one steal, three blocks and three three-pointers in Thursday’s win over the Heat.

While two of the Raptors’ three two-way contract slots have been filled by Chucky Hepburn and second-round pick Jaden Bradley, Bittle will be in training camp on an Exhibit 10 deal. Not selected in last month’s draft, the 7-footer out of Oregon has displayed range out beyond the three-point line as well as the ability to provide rim protection defensively. While Bittle may not be in a position where he can be relied on in most redraft leagues, he’s an intriguing player to watch in dynasty formats, especially when considering Jakob Poeltl’s struggles to stay healthy last season.
Allen Graves

TOR Forward

Allen Graves accounted for 23 points (8-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, four assists, one steal, two blocks and four three-pointers in Thursday’s win over the Heat.

The Raptors fell short of a spot in Saturday’s semifinals, but Graves came through with another solid performance for the winners. The rookie forward’s ability to fill a stat line is what pushed him into the first round despite not being a starter at Santa Clara. Graves contributed on both ends of the floor against the Heat, and he offers a similar fantasy profile to Collin Murray-Boyles, albeit at a smaller size. How valuable Graves can be as a rookie depends partially on Kawhi Leonard, whose acquisition is still on hold. Rotation minutes should not be an issue for Graves, given the many ways in which he can contribute.
Allen Graves

TOR Forward

Allen Graves amassed 13 points (5-of-12 FGs), five rebounds, six assists, four steals and three three-pointers in Monday’s win over the Pacers.

As was the case in Friday’s loss to the Celtics, Graves provided value in multiple statistical categories on Monday. Versatility is one reason the first-round pick out of Santa Clara could be an immediate fantasy asset, even though Graves is likely to come off the bench. Graves offers value as a rebounder, facilitator and defender, with Monday’s stat line only lacking a blocked shot. While he may offer a limited ceiling as a rookie, Graves may be worth the risk in deeper leagues.
Collin Murray-Boyles

TOR Forward #30

Collin Murray-Boyles (finger) will not play in Monday’s game against the Pacers.

Murray-Boyles has yet to appear in a game this summer, and it’s fair to wonder if the Raptors will eventually shut him down given the low stakes. While injuries limited him to 57 games as a rookie, the 6-foot-8 forward averaged 8.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in 21.9 minutes. When healthy, Murray-Boyles can be highly valuable in category leagues, even if he continues to come off the bench next season.
Nate Bittle

TOR Center

Nate Bittle recorded eight points (3-of-7 FGs), 10 rebounds, three assists and six blocks in Friday’s loss to the Celtics.

Signed to an Exhibit 10 contract on Friday morning, Bittle had an excellent summer league debut. The 7-footer blocked six shots and shot 2-of-5 from beyond the arc, providing value on both ends of the floor. In the past, the Raptors have enjoyed success developing players through their G League affiliate. At a minimum, Bittle knows that he’ll be in an NBA training camp come September. Not a bad deal for a player who went undrafted after a productive college career at Oregon.
Allen Graves

TOR Forward

Allen Graves finished Friday’s loss to the Celtics with 22 points (9-of-16 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 13 rebounds, three steals, two blocks and three three-pointers.

Making his summer debut, Graves displayed the versatility that made him the 19th overall pick in last month’s draft. Efficient offensively, the former Santa Clara forward was also a pest defensively. What the Raptors’ rotation will look like once the regular season begins is unknown, as the Kawhi Leonard trade has been placed on hold. Regardless of what happens, Graves has the tools needed to crack the rotation, just as Collin Murray-Boyles did as a rookie last season.
