Toronto Raptors sign former Bucks guard Andre Jackson Jr.
Andre Jackson Jr. will compete for a roster spot, and Toronto can keep his G League rights if it waives him.
- On Wednesday, the Toronto Raptors signed former Milwaukee Bucks guard Andre Jackson Jr. to an Exhibit 10 deal, adding depth ahead of training camp next month.
- The Milwaukee Bucks moved on from Jackson as the team reshaped its roster this offseason, including trading Giannis Antetokounmpo to the Miami Heat; Jackson averaged 2.4 points and 1.5 rebounds over 48 games last season.
- Drafted 36th overall in the 2023 NBA Draft, the former University of Connecticut Huskies player stands 6-6 with a wingspan just under 6-10, offering defensive versatility across multiple positions.
- The Exhibit 10 deal provides a one-year, non-guaranteed salary, meaning Jackson faces an uphill battle to secure a roster spot during training camp; Toronto retains his G League rights if waived.
- At 24 years old, the Raptors view Jackson as a development prospect who could earn a two-way contract or full roster spot, as Toronto must maintain at least 14 players throughout the season.
