The Toronto Raptors intend to sign forward Mouhamadou Gueye to a 10-day contract, per Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Gueye, 25, is 6-foot-9 and has been playing with Raptors 905 of the G League. He has yet to appear in an NBA game.
This marks the second reported 10-day signing of Saturday. As we relayed here, the Raptors are also expected to sign veteran guard/forward Justise Winslow to the same deal.
Gueye is averaging 14.3 points, 8.4 rebounds more than 2 blocks in the G League this season. He was signed by the Dallas Mavericks before the start of last season, waived, and then played for the Texas Legends of the G League.
“Gueye will earn $64,343 over the course of his 10 days on the Raptors’ roster and will be eligible to play in the team’s final three pre-All-Star games before his deal expires,” wrote Luke Adams of Hoops Rumors.
