Raptors cut roster to 18 by waiving Perry, Gillespie

The Toronto Raptors have announced that they’ve waived Reggie Perry and Freddie Gillespie, trimming their roster to 18 players.

Nick Nurse had indicated the team would make their final decisions quickly, and waiving Gillespie and Perry the morning after the final preseason game is indeed pretty quick.

But there’s still one more cut to make. And with the Raptors not practicing today, that tells me there’s some interesting debate going on inside the team’s management offices! Will it be Sam Dekker? Ish Wainwright? Isaac Bonga? Or a completely outside of the box candidate, like Malachi Flynn?
