Jakob Poeltl Returning To Toronto
11 months agoToronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl is re-upping with the team on a four-year, $80 million deal. After being moved by the San Antonio Spurs this past trade deadline to the squad which drafted him, the 27-year-old receives a multi-year extension as Toronto's starting center. Poeltl has developed into one of the league's better defensive big men with playmaking ability. The former first-rounder provided 13.1 points, 9.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 2.5 combined steals and blocks across 27.2 minutes per game with the Raptors last year. Poeltl remains a preferred big for fantasy rosters punting free-throw percentage (56.9% from the charity stripe in Toronto last year).
