The Raptors have agreed to a 3-year, $6.11MM contract with forward Jonathan Mogbo, Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype reports (Twitter link).
It’s the maximum amount allowed under the current CBA’s second-round exception.
Mogbo played last season with San Francisco, averaging 14.2 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.6 steals and 0.8 blocks. With the draft split into two rounds last month, Mogbo was the first pick of the second round.
Toronto resisted offers for the pick because they liked Mogbo’s versatility. He’s also a childhood friend of franchise player Scottie Barnes.
Under the previous CBA, teams would have needed to use a chunk of their mid-level exception to give a second-round pick like Mogbo a third year, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet tweets.
