Remember when the Raptors signed an ex-champion and it collapsed silently

Alright, I’d bet that if you asked a long-time Raptors fan who the biggest free agent signing in franchise history is, they’d probably mention names like Hedo Türkoglu or DeMarre Carroll — that’s actually something I looked into recently. But there’s one guy who might get overlooked in that conversation, and I’d argue he was a pretty noteworthy signing at the time. Considering Toronto’s limited appeal to free agents, grabbing Otto Porter Jr. seemed like a sleeper move; I remember being pretty excited to see a savvy veteran and a still-solid player (at least I thought so) join the Raptors.
