Kennedy Meeks has been intrigued by the Toronto Raptors since his pre-draft workout in May. After an impressive summer league stint with the team where the four-year senior out of UNC averaged 11.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 15.5 minutes in five games, the Raptors let him know the interest was mutual when they announced they had signed him to a contract.
When Meeks first came through Toronto during the pre-draft process, he had a good showing in a workout that he said had been mainly focused on attacking the rim and knocking down the 3-point shot.
