The Toronto Raptors announced Thursday they have re-signed free-agent guard DeMar DeRozan to a multi-year contract. Per team policy, financial details were not disclosed.
“Our top priority in the offseason was to make sure DeMar remained a Raptor,” said Raptors President and General Manager Masai Ujiri. “He has been a foundation for our franchise, a leader who exemplifies the culture we are developing and a key contributor in our success.
“We are delighted that after seven seasons DeMar wanted to remain in Toronto to help us continue to build a championship program.”
DeRozan played a major role in last season’s franchise-record 56 regular season wins and an appearance in the Eastern Conference Finals.
