What happened: Free-agent forward Kyle Anderson has agreed to a one-year, $3.9 million deal with the Toronto Raptors, per ESPN's Shams Charania. The signing gives Toronto a versatile, ball-moving forward off the bench heading into the 2026-27 season. Anderson is entering his 13th NBA season.

Why it matters: The move reunites Anderson with former San Antonio teammate Kawhi Leonard, who returned to Toronto earlier this offseason. Anderson's passing, defense and low-turnover game fit a Raptors rotation that is reshaping its forward depth around Leonard.

By the numbers: Terms: one year, $3.9 million. Anderson enters his 13th NBA season and shared a San Antonio tenure with Leonard.

What to watch: Watch how Anderson slots into the Raptors' forward rotation and whether Toronto continues to add veteran depth around Leonard through free agency.
