Bennett signs with Raptors

As previously rumoured: Anthony Bennett signs one-year deal with Raptors

After undergoing a physical exam Sunday morning, former No. 1 NBA draft pick Anthony Bennett has signed a one-year, league minimum contract with the Toronto Raptors, league sources told Yahoo Sports.

Bennett, the top pick in 2013, cleared waivers on Friday after a contract buyout with the Minnesota Timberwolves, and the Raptors emerged as strong frontrunners to sign him.

Bennett returns home in Canada with fresh opportunity and comfort. Bennett held a strong desire to return to his Toronto roots and play for the Raptors.

As noted in the other thread, it hasn't been the most promising start for Bennett in his NBA career, but good luck to him all the same. Perhaps returning home will be the change of scene that sets him on a better path.

Well if he can't make it on his home town then he can't make it anywhere

Good grief. #1 pick from couple seasons ago gets minimum contract for one single season.

This guy makes Beasley and Bargnani picks look solid.

Good for him. Hope he's able to bounce back
