Toronto Raptors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Washington Wizards forward Eugene Omoruyi has been waived. The 27-year-old is on a non-guaranteed $2.2 million contract for 2024-25. After going undrafted in 2021, Omoruyi has spent three seasons in the NBA. He landed in Washington last offseason after being waived by the Detroit Pistons. Omoruyi had a minuscule role on the team, averaging 4.8 points in 9.1 minutes across 43 games. He will become an unrestricted free agent if no team picks him up off waivers. Following the move, the Wizards still have some maneuvering to do, as there are 16 players on the roster.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram has been one of the bigger dominoes in the early goings of this offseason. At first, there were reports that the Pelicans were unlikely to offer him a max contract. Now, it seems the team is trying to get a deal done, but they are prepared to search the trade market if they don't get a deal done that is friendly for both sides. The Philadelphia 76ers are one of the teams interested in a trade as they search for a third star to pair with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey. Other teams mentioned are the Cleveland Cavaliers and Atlanta Hawks, but they would have more hoops to jump through in terms of contract numbers. According to Jake Fischer, one team that could emerge as a trade suitor is the Sacramento Kings who are looking to upgrade from Kevin Huerter and Harrison Barnes.

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley has agreed to sign a new contract that will keep him in Toronto for the next five years. According to Shams Charania, the deal is worth $175 million for five years. Quickley was a restricted free agent and would have hit the free agency market if they couldn't get a deal done by June 30. Instead, the 25-year-old will be sticking around after being traded to the Raptors in the deal that sent OG Anunoby to the New York Knicks. Through 38 games last season, the Kentucky product averaged 18.6 points, 6.8 assists, 4.8 rebounds, 2.8 threes, and 1.8 turnovers per game. This contract solidifies Quickley as a cornerstone piece to the team along with Scottie Barnes and RJ Barrett.

The Sacramento Kings traded point guard Davion Mitchell and forward Sasha Vezenkov to the Toronto Raptors for forward Jalen McDaniels on Thursday, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. The trade gives the Kings some flexibility, opening up a roster spot. Mitchell was the No. 9 pick in 2021. Last season he averaged 5.3 points, 1.3 rebounds and 1.9 assists in 15.3 minutes per game. Vezenkov averaged 5.4 points and 2.3 rebounds during his first season in the NBA. McDaniels averaged 3.4 points and 1.6 rebounds in his only season as a Raptor.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram is reportedly eager to remain on the team. "Brandon wants to stay here," said Pelicans president David Griffin during his post-draft availability. "He believes in what we're building. That's meaningful to us. It's meaningful to him. I think it's meaningful to his agent. At the same time, there's a financial reality that we all deal with." We could still see Ingram in a new uniform next season because the Pelicans aren't willing to offer him a max extension. He is eligible for a four-year, $208 million deal. Ingram's health issues -- he has played 60-plus games just three times since his rookie year -- and playoff struggles make him a risky investment for New Orleans.
