You would think he would exercise his “player option” to become free and negotiate a new contract, but Gary Trent Jr. (17.4 average points) finally decided not to do it to stay at Toronto, says Chris Haynes.
So that means the 24-year-old full-back won’t be testing the market this summer and will hit his $18.5m in 2023/24 as expected, leaving the Raptors with one less uncertainty on their list.
Moreover, our colleague from TNT and Bleacher Report adds that Gary Trent Jr. is considering a long-term extension with the Canadian franchise. The two camps will thus try to find a new contractual agreement, to extend their collaboration beyond the summer of 2024.
