On Monday night, the Toronto Raptors suffered a 113-108 home loss to the New York Knicks. Notably, DJ Carton did not see any playing time during the game. By Tuesday, the Raptors announced they had waived Carton. According to Sportsnet’s Zulfi Sheikh, Carton had shown potential but was frequently hampered by injuries, leading to this decision.
With Carton’s two-way spot now vacant, candidates such as Omoruyi, Guerrier, and Chandler from the Raptors 905 squad are in contention, along with Disu as a possible option. The team may also explore external options to fill the position and strengthen their roster.
