The Toronto Raptors made significant changes to their roster on Saturday, sparking a mix of excitement and uncertainty among fans.
At the forefront of these changes was the conversion of forward Jamison Battle's contract to a two-way deal. This move allows Battle to split his time between the Raptors and their G League affiliate, potentially giving him more opportunities to develop his skills and contribute to the team.
However, some fans may be wondering what this means for Battle's future with the Raptors. A two-way deal often signifies that a player is not quite ready for a full-time NBA role, but still has potential. It will be interesting to see how Battle responds to this new arrangement and whether he can prove himself to be a valuable asset to the team.
In addition to Battle's contract conversion, the Raptors also made some tough cuts to their roster. Guards Jahmi'us Ramsey and Jared Rhoden, as well as center Branden Carlson, were all waived on Saturday.
These moves are likely intended to help the Raptors trim their roster and get down to the required number of players. However, they also represent a setback for the players involved, who will now have to look elsewhere for opportunities.
Ramsey, Rhoden, and Carlson all showed promise during their time with the Raptors, but ultimately didn't quite make the cut. It's possible that they will resurface in the NBA or overseas, but for now, their futures are uncertain.
As the Raptors continue to shape their roster and prepare for the season ahead, fans will be watching closely to see how these moves pay off. Will Battle thrive in his new role, and will the team's decision to part ways with Ramsey, Rhoden, and Carlson prove to be the right one?
