Report: Raptors sign power forward Jarrod Uthoff
The Toronto Raptors have signed forward Jarrod Uthoff to a two-year partially guaranteed deal, according to The Vertical's Shams Charania.The reported deal will bring Uthoff into the Raptors training camp in the fall with a shot at making the club.Uthoff, 23, went undrafted after an impressive collegiate career at Iowa where he averaged 18.9 points per game in his senior year and was one of 35 players named to the mid-season watchlist for the NCAA's player of the year honour.At 6-foot-10, Uthoff is considered a stretch four, and shot 38.2 per cent from beyond the arc last season.

Report: Raptors sign Jarrod Uthoff to partially guaranteed 2-year deal


Report: Raptors sign Jarrod Uthoff to partially guaranteed 2-year deal
The Toronto Raptors have signed undrafted forward Jarrod Uthoff to a partially guaranteed two-year deal, according to a report from Shams Charania of The Vertical.Similar to the Fred VanVleet deal, Uthoff's will likely contain a guarantee in the $25,000-$75,000 range and means he'll be in training camp with the team.As things stand now, it probably also means he'll be competing with a handful of players for the team's 15th roster spot, although plenty can change between now and camp, and the Raptors still have their $2.2-million bi-annual exception to use if there's a more veteran name they like.As a reminder, the Raptors brought in four players on similar deals last year for a 19-man camp, and teams can go as high as 20 on the roster at any given time.

Poll: What type of player should the Raptors sign as their 15th man?
There aren't as many names out there, but let's hash this out.Being a team's 15th man is a rather ignoble honour, but it still means a player is in the NBA.This is no small thing.Notwithstanding the Fred VanVleet signing (since it appears very unlikely the Raptors will carry four point guards on the roster), the Raptors still have a slot open on their roster.
