Jalen McDaniels has agreed to a two-year, $9.3 million contract with the Toronto Raptors and will leave the 76ers in free agency, a league source confirmed to The Inquirer.

McDaniels’ length and athleticism, though, are coveted attributes in the modern NBA. He spent the first three-plus seasons of his NBA career with the Hornets, and was averaging career-highs in points (10.6), rebounds (4.8), assists (2.0) and steals (1.2) in his 56 games with Charlotte last season before being traded. He was a second-round draft pick in 2019.

Gotta hope there's a plan that we just can't see yet

My renewed enthusiasm is turning to discouragement.

Given the article notes that they already have guys like him, what’s the point?

The Raptors have also recently constructed a roster full of wing players who fit McDaniels’ prototype, allowing them to play creative defensive schemes, rebound and get out in transition on offense.
