Episode Details

Toronto’s Raptors just pulled off a savvy move by signing Trey Jemison to a two-way contract — a rare pickup aimed squarely at filling their center void. With Jakob Poeltl as the lone true big man over 6’9”, the Raptors desperately need depth, especially with Poeltl’s back injuries last season limiting his impact. Jemison, in his final year of two-way eligibility and a seasoned traveler through teams like the Knicks, Lakers, and Pelicans, brings much-needed size and veteran exposure from playing alongside stars like Mitchell Robinson. While he’s not expected to be a starter, his role as insurance against injury or performance dips is crucial — particularly with Collin Murray-Boyles potentially stepping into a small-ball center role. If he gets minutes, it’ll likely come when others falter — but his presence could be the difference-maker Toronto needs to stay competitive.
