Raptors Sign Orlando Robinson To Two-Way Deal

After his second 10-day contract with the Raptors expired on Thursday night, Orlando Robinson is back with the team, having signed a two-way deal, according to a press release. Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca (Twitter link) first reported that Robinson would be returning on a two-way contract.

Robinson, who began the season with Sacramento, was waived from his non-guaranteed contract by the Kings a month ago and caught on with the Raptors, signing a pair of 10-day deals with Toronto in recent weeks.

The seven-foot center has already played more minutes in 20 days with the Raptors than he did in two-and-a-half months with the Kings, averaging 3.7 points and 2.7 rebounds in 11.1 minutes per game across seven outings with Toronto so far.

Robinson could play a more significant role in the frontcourt after the club traded big man Kelly Olynyk to New Orleans at Thursday’s trade deadline.

The Raptors opened up a two-way slot by promoting Jamison Battle to the 15-man roster. That move, reported earlier today, is now official. Toronto still has one open spot on its standard roster and could use that opening to continue auditioning players on 10-day deals.

Robinson will be eligible to appear in up to 19 NBA games for the rest of the 2024/25 season, a prorated portion of the full-season 50-game limit.
