VanVleet signs historic contract with the Toronto Raptors

Former Wichita State guard Fred VanVleet has agreed to a four-year, $85 million deal to re-sign with the Toronto Raptors, according to multiple reports.

VanVleet went undrafted following four seasons with the Shockers and signed with the Raptors as an undrafted free agent prior to the 2016-17 season. VanVleet now has the largest contract for an undrafted player in NBA history, surpassing Wesley Matthews’ four-year $70 million contract with the Dallas Mavericks in 2015.

VanVleet’s breakout came in the 2019 postseason, as VanVleet got hot from three-point range in the Eastern Conference finals against the Milwaukee Bucks.
