The Raptors and big Jonathan Mogbo have agreed to a three-year, $6.11 million contract, according to Michael Scotto of Hoops Hype (via Twitter).
It is the maximum allowable sum under the current CBA’s second-round exception.
Mogbo played for San Francisco past season, averaging 14.2 points, 10.2 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 1.6 steals, and 0.8 blocks. When the draft was broken into two rounds last month, Mogbo was the first pick in the second round.
Toronto spurned down offers for the pick because they valued Mogbo’s versatility. He is also childhood friends with Scottie Barnes, a franchise player.
According to Blake Murphy of Sportsnet, the previous CBA required teams to use a portion of their mid-level exception to provide a second-round pick like Mogbo a third year.
