Raptors Make New Surprising Signing…
The Toronto Raptors are signing Kevin McCullar Jr. to a two-way contract, 2 weeks after the New York Knicks gave him a championship ring and then waived him 3 days later. Ben Rogers breaks it all down.
Who is Kevin McCullar Jr., why did the champion Knicks cut him to make room for Dalton Knecht, and can a 6-6 defensive wing help a Raptors team that is 2-4 since a 2-0 start, with Kawhi Leonard out with left knee swelling?

Sounds like another injury prone player.
Trade Bobby Webster lol
Hey Dummee's –
Raptors haven't had the easiest of schedules. It's not about who they faced, its when and where. They catch a red hot Minny team who were ripping apart opponents, (w/o Kawhi), one game later Minny loses Ant-man. Play them again, both down 1 star as see what's up! They lost a back2back to Orlando (that one stung for me). Then off to the dreaded west coast trip w/o their new All-star four games in. The Clippers blew leads for loses in all 7 games they played – but according to white bread, its not a quality win. They beat the Wizard who are legit this year (like I called) and the lowly Bulls. And its not even ten games in! SMH at the lack of not knowing who and what this team is – since they dont show out in OCT/NOV but will taked stacked built teams to 7 games when it matters. Now add Kawhi. STU dummees!
Firing Masai was Raptor's greatest mistake…
We have more wings than Colonel Sanders!
Leave it up to the raptors to sign a guy nobody has ever heard of, okc signed dalen terry just yesterday , who tf is Kevin mckullr
Yak need to go
The raptors need another 2 way shooter for their offense. The move makes sense. Shooting and defense is their biggest issue with kawhi out.
Raptors are the kings of signing noname ppl that nobody has ever heard of, signing created players fresh out the laboratory smfh
This Bobby is a joke!! What a horrible roster construction!!! This guy should be fired !!!
Shit if this were the case they should've signed Dalton Knect
Hope this guy can give them something on the court so we can see how different it is to have his skill set in the rotation and if it will change how they play on offense and defense they need that extra spark
What?! Why didnt we sign Boucher then?! I mean thats the answer… wait what….
"Chris Boucher signs with the Shanghai Sharks…." bwaahahahahaaahahah.
Meh. This a Sub mid signing for mid team.
But fr tho. I have to eat crow. That poetl contract has NO chance of living up to the terms. Bruh. We need a centre badly. Again.
Surely another G-League wing will solve our problems.
Just another 60overall g leaguer! Seems like he fits the archetype of what Bobby likes to sign 🗑️
I’ve been saying it for months. Nate bittle might be getting serious minutes once he’s healthy. He gives us exactly what yak p doesn’t. Great size. Way longer wing span and yak. Sharpe is not a good nba player right now. He’s not a good rebounder and he’s not a smart player. He takes to long to process the game. That’s where bittle really separates himself from
Sharp. Bittle is a better rebounder then sharpe. Better shooter. Can stretch the floor. But ya sharp can block the ball / protect the rim better. Don’t be surprised if bittle is the next Jamison battle. A free agent signing of a player who didn’t get drafted
I’ll be honest I don’t want to hear about anymore signings unless it’s a big man.
On a scale of 0-10, McCuller's rating to inspire this fan with hope and excitement is a big fat "0".🥱 Even though we desperately need a center and a floor general that can shoot, I guess we can always use a decent 3&D player. However it doesn't seem like this guy has proven that he excels in either of those two categories. WTF is Bobby doing?! At least we can afford him and Darko will likely not give him any playing time other than garbage minutes. (It may be a while before we win a game that convincingly that we pull our starters with the way we are playing…)
Bobby is a fraud
Thank goodness you got rid of that elevator music at least now we can hear what you’re saying and concentrate on it. Thanks a lot. !
Would yall do a Allan Graves and TJD based deal for Yves Missi ?
Crap from 3 point range? He sounds like a Raptor already!
I'm beginning to wonder if Bobby Webster understands basketball…
raptors took a big risk on kl2 and now hoping to get lucky the rest of the way…good luck raptors. the heart of the team are the point guards, lowry and freddie v are head and shoulders better than the 2026 crew, this issue alone is super hard to upgrade for the dinos.can shead and iq suddenly become elite? the raps already know….
Bobby is literally playing in our face now… purposely neglecting the actual needs of the team to go get a copy and paste player that provides the exact same thing we already have…
bring up Malachi Smith!!!!!
Good signing
CAN WE PLEASE JUST JETTISON JAK FOR A HANDSHAKE AND A SERVICEABLE CENTER???? Who cares about this guy!!!
This is where the Raptors are at. This dude is spending north of 12 minutes talking abouta nobody.
The Raptors are showing who/what we are. A mid-level team no one will want to play, but a team that will NOT contend.
Whats wrong with this GM fam lol
Kevin McCullar Jr???? like WTF we need a center or could have had Rob Dillingham. This guy two season and does not shoot the 3 well. If your gonna waste the position sign Jamarion Sharpe
You tell us to watch out about every player in the league. So if course you will be eventually be right.
Jak is so dookie man, he’s got to go
Bobby Webster is irritating.
it's a high pressure season for bobby and the team. if they fail to make it to the 2nd round, darko and bobby are at risk of being fired. surely, this is understood?
mccullar is like peavy where peavy refused to come to toronto. difference is mccullar has higher basketball IQ than peavy. can pass dribble defend. he lacks the 3 pt shooting like peavy.
Bro are we literally tryna waste the few years we gone have kawhi ?
