TORONTO - The Toronto Raptors have reportedly locked up their top free agent, Canadian Chris Boucher.
The Raptors have agreed with the six-foot-nine Montreal centre on a three-year deal worth US$35.25 million, which was first reported by ESPN.
The move came just after NBA free agency opened at 6 p.m. ET on Thursday.
Boucher averaged 9.4 points and 6.2 rebounds per game last season, and 11.2 points and 5.8 rebounds in six playoff games against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Boucher originally signed with the Raptors before the 2018-19 season after playing one game with the Golden State Warriors the previous year.
