The youngsters were loving the vibes and so was Boucher. The former Oregon standout grew up in a tough environment in Montreal and knows how important it is for young hoopers to get the proper guidance in order to chase their dreams. He’s making sure that’s possible through his camps.</p><p>Undrafted in 2017, <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-chris-boucher-thaddeus-young-agree-to-deals-with-toronto" rel="noopener">Chris Boucher ultimately</a> signed with the Golden State Warriors before joining the Raptors in 2018. 2020-21 was by far his best season yet, averaging 13.6 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. In 2022-23, Boucher put up 9.4 points and grabbed 5.5 boards per night as a key cog off the bench for Toronto.</p><p>With a new head coach in Darko Rajakovic, Boucher could potentially see even more minutes in the upcoming campaign as he continues to solidify himself as an important contributor in the second unit. <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-astronomical-price-for-og-anunoby-pascal-siakam-trade" rel="noopener">The Raptors remain adamant</a> about trying to be a playoff team, despite losing Fred VanVleet to the Houston Rockets in free agency.</p><p>Scottie Barnes appears to be the building block while Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby are still on the roster as well. Toronto also added Dennis Schroder to replace FVV for 2023-24.</p><p>Chris Boucher will hold another camp in Ottawa next weekend before preparing for the preseason.</p><p> </p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He also has a webcast and blog named "Breath of Fresh Air." Charles is passionate about sports, and is an encyclopedia when it comes to the history (haha).</address><h3 class="op-kicker">NBA</h3><figure class="op-ad"></figure></header><p>It’s no secret the internet can be a safe haven for everything bad about humanity, and people in the public eye can find themselves on the receiving end of disgusting messages. Toronto Raptors forward Chris <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-rumors-the-main-reasons-why-chris-boucher-chose-raptors-over-celtics-bucks-in-free-agency-revealed" rel="noopener">Boucher is the latest</a> of NBA players who experienced the wrath of salty fans via the internet.</p><p>With fantasy sports and betting coming to the forefront, lots of money is on the line, and if something doesn’t workout in the bettor’s favor, the impulse drives them to do crazy things, such as bash them on said social media platform.</p><p>Chris <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/raptors-news-chris-boucher-thaddeus-young-agree-to-deals-with-toronto" rel="noopener">Boucher recalls a moment</a> he caught hate during an interview with Yahoo Sports Canada, and the message is <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&amp;v=Vla_2Gv1K5s&amp;feature=youtu.be" rel="noopener">one that may anger</a> some upon seeing what was said.</p><p>“The betting is not going to make it better now, with the parlays and all that… Somebody said, ‘I chose the wrong slave today.’ Literally sent me that message… Cause I only had 5 points and he needed me to score 10,” Boucher said.</p><p>Two things come to mind after reading this. The first is said bettor probably needs to get some help if he’s saying things like this after losing money. Instead of blaming Boucher for not scoring enough points, maybe he (or she) should look in the mirror and find better ways to use funds.</p><p>Secondly, saying he chose the wrong slave can have someone thinking there’s a racial issue with that person. It’s logical to think Boucher, or any other player, is not concerned with anyone’s bet, let alone someone who appears to think this is still the era before the Civil Rights Movement.</p><p>Messages like this outline how brave people can be on social media, knowing they would never say these things to the player’s face.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

They did shift much of their attention to re-signing a pair of players, including Chris Boucher.</p><p><a href="https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/34175137/chris-boucher-back-toronto-raptors-3-years-3525-million-agent-says" rel="noopener">ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski noted</a> on Thursday that Boucher agreed to a three-year, $35.25 million deal to stay put in Toronto. The team opted to use Boucher’s Bird rights to complete the deal and overall, the $35.25 million for the power forward is fully guaranteed.</p><p>Boucher did not have a shortage of suitors interested in signing him in free agency. <a href="https://hoopshype.com/lists/nba-rumors-kevin-durant-rudy-gobert-og-anunoby-gary-trent-jr-donte-divincenzo/" rel="noopener">HoopsHype’s Michael Scotto</a> noted that teams such as the Boston Celtics, Milwaukee Bucks, Chicago Bulls, and Brooklyn Nets all expressed intrigue in coming to terms with him on a free agent agreement.</p><p>In the end, there were multiple factors as to why Boucher elected to instead remain in Toronto. Among them, Scotto mentioned that Boucher felt that Toronto has become his “home,” and that he has had a “consistent role” with the team.</p><p>Scotto further adds that Boucher also decided to re-sign with the Raptors because he sees that he can “continue to be given a chance to grow and expand his game.”</p><p>Boucher has blossomed as a keen role player for Raptors head coach Nick Nurse ever since he joined the organization over the 2018 free agency period. He is just coming off of a campaign where he featured in a career-high 80 regular season games, and he also posted a 9.4 points per game average, which was below his mark from the previous campaign (13.6).</p><p>Overall, Boucher is expected to once again be the Raptors’ primary backup power forward for the coming <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/sports/nba/toronto-raptors/" rel="noopener">season</a>.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
