Per Adrian Wojnarowski, Hernangomez and the Raptors agreed to a one-year contract. With Juancho Hernangomez unemployed, Ujiri decided to throw the newfound actor a lifeline.

The Toronto Raptors have signed Juancho Hernangomez to a one-year deal, the same guy who played Bo Cruz in "Hustle".

Nevertheless, it’s nice to see Juancho Hernangomez get another chance in the league. The Spaniard did play a short stint with the C’s last season before also spending time briefly with the Spurs and Jazz. In 40 games overall, he averaged around five points per game. But, fans sure took notice on Tuesday when “Bo Cruz” signed with the Toronto Raptors on a one-year deal, as Adrian Wojnarowski reported:

NBA Fans React To Juancho Hernangomez Signing A One-Year ... (Yardbarker)

Some free agents are yet to sign deals with teams who are willing to draft them. There are big names like Carmelo Anthony and Collin Sexton that still don't ...

Duane Brown: Left Tackle One of the best free-agent offensive linemen available right now is Duane Brown. He is a left tackle who is a 15-year NFL veteran and has been named to the Pro Bowl five times. Ereck Flowers: Guard/Tackle One of the things that the Packers and offensive coordinator Adam Stenavich love in offensive linemen is the ability to play multiple positions. Also on Tuesday, the Saints agreed to terms with center Nick Martin and defensive end Scott Patchan, and waived cornerback Jordan Miller, offensive lineman Derek Schweiger and punter Daniel Whelan. Brown, 29, had 33 carries for 125 yards and a touchdown in seven games last season with the Miami Dolphins. He has totaled 331 rushes for 1,313 yards and 12 scores in 77 career games with the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams and Dolphins. Martin, 29, has started 62 of his 79 games played with the Houston Texans and Las Vegas Raiders. Patchan was signed by the Indianapolis Colts following the 2022 NFL Draft. He was waived on Saturday. Indianapolis Colts GM says they won’t sign Julio Jones Since being released earlier this year by the Tennessee Titans, observers of the sport have wondered if two-time All-Pro Julio Jones might be a perfect fight for the Colts, especially since their new starting QB forged a legendary duo with Jones during 10 seasons together with the Atlanta Falcons. Unfortunately for fans of the Ryan and Jones duo that took the Falcons to the Super Bowl in 2017, Ballard quickly shut down the idea of Jones joining the Colts’ receiver corps. For the first time in almost a decade, all of New York can daydream that a regular-season series between the Mets and Yankees is merely an appetizer for an even larger stage: the World Series. The Subway Series reconvenes for the first time this season when the Mets play host to the Yankees on Tuesday in the opener of a two-game series. In a corresponding move, New York recalled outfielder Tim Locastro from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre ahead of Tuesday night's game against the host New York Mets. Locastro, 30, is hitting .240 with two homers, four RBIs and six stolen bases in 19 games with the Yankees in 2022. Walker is 1-3 with a 4.06 ERA in six career starts against the Yankees. Montgomery is 0-2 with a 7.11 ERA in three starts against the Mets. With both teams in first place in their respective divisions, the Mets and Yankees appear headed for the playoffs for the first time in the same season since 2015, when the Yankees lost to the Houston Astros in the American League wild-card game while the Mets reached the World Series before falling in five games to the Kansas City Royals. The teams have played just once in the World Series -- in 2000, when the Yankees beat the Mets in five games in the first all-New York series since the Yankees' seven-game win over the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1956. And now it seems he has signed a 1-year deal with the Toronto Raptors as a free agent, something that has earned him a lot of attention from the fans. "There's going to be a lot of ups and downs in the season," said Yankees pitcher Nestor Cortes, who earned the win Sunday with six scoreless innings. And while a lot of them have drawn interest from fans in terms of where they will end up playing, there is one name that many may have not expected to be prominent this offseason. Durant is the one who requested the trade, but Fischer notes that there has been no indication he plans to hold out when camp begins.
