The Toronto Raptors signed forward Tyson Degenhart on Monday and waived guard Andre Jackson Jr. in a corresponding move, bringing the Boise State product back into the organization after a season with Raptors 905.
Both deals are Exhibit 10 agreements, the standard training-camp contract that pays a bonus if a player spends at least 60 days with a team’s G League affiliate.
Blake Murphy of Sportsnet first reported the transactions.
Degenhart is expected to be waived again and return to Mississauga, where he spent 2025-26 after going undrafted out of Boise State.
The 6-foot-8, 235-pound forward averaged 8.5 points and 3.0 rebounds in 50 G League games last season, shooting 54.7 percent from the field, 38.9 percent from three and 71.1 percent from the line in 21.1 minutes a night.
That efficiency is the part of the résumé that travels. After a December outing against the Maine Celtics in which he scored 19, Degenhart told broadcaster Chris McKee that the lesson of the G League was simple: “Defense will take you a long way, that’s for sure.”
The former volume scorer has framed his role that way since arriving in the organization — win the dirty possessions, and the scoring will follow.
At Boise State he was hard to ignore. A three-time first-team All-Mountain West selection, Degenhart finished as the Broncos’ all-time leading scorer with 2,037 points, one of only three players in conference history with at least 2,000 points and 700 rebounds.
As a senior in 2024-25, he averaged 18.3 points and 6.1 rebounds on 52.6/34.9/79.7 shooting. Across 138 college games he posted 14.8 points and 5.3 rebounds.
Toronto gave him an Exhibit 10 last September, waived him before the regular season, and kept him in the system. Monday’s signing is a continuation of that path, not a sudden promotion.
Jackson’s exit closes a short camp stay. The former Milwaukee second-round pick had signed with Toronto in August after three seasons on a standard contract with the Bucks, then dealt with a hamstring injury.
His waiver clears a preseason roster spot for a forward the front office already knows.
For Degenhart, the next step is familiar. Exhibit 10 deals rarely become NBA contracts in October. The practical prize is another year of development with the 905, a chance to show the same shooting efficiency in a larger role, and a standing invitation if injuries open a two-way or standard spot later.
At 23, with a scorer’s college track record and a year of professional defence already on tape, he remains exactly the kind of depth piece Toronto has preferred to keep close.
