Raptors plan to lay off Dekker to reserve 14-man lineup for Dragic

by admin

On November 6, Beijing time, Sam Decker and the Raptors came to an end. According to the Raptors and team reporter Blake Murphy, the Raptors plan to lay off Dekker. As the 2015 first-round pick, Dekker played for the Rockets, but now he can’t get a foothold in the NBA.

Dekker, 27, from the University of Wisconsin, was selected by the Rockets with the 18th overall pick in the first round of 2015. He had teammates with Harden and Howard. In the offseason of 2017 in the Rockets’ introduction of Paul’s deal, he was packaged and sent to the Clippers along with Beverly, Harrell, Lu Wei and others. In the 2018-19 season, he was removed from the Cavaliers and Wizards.

From 2019 to 2021, Decker played in the Russian League and the Turkish League. In August of this year, he returned to the NBA and signed a one-year partial guarantee contract with the Raptors for $1.8 million, of which the guaranteed part was only $350,000.

However, so far this season, Dekker has only played 54 seconds in the game against the Pacers on October 28, without a single shot, and all statistics are zero.

It is reported that the Raptors cut him before Decker’s contract was converted to full guarantee (November 6 local time). The Raptors saved 1.54 million US dollars in expenses, and at the same time they were able to maintain the 14-man roster until the Dragic problem was solved.

Including today’s game, Dragic has missed 6 consecutive games. In the offseason, after swapping with Lowry, he didn’t want to stay with the Raptors. He wanted to join the Lone Ranger after the buyout, and got together with fellow Slovenian Doncic, but was forced to stay by the Raptors. This season, Dragic played the first 4 games for the Raptors, and was subsequently hidden by coach Nick Nas. (Demon)
