The 25-year-old joins Pascal Siakam, OG Anunoby, Scottie Barnes, rookie Gradey Dick and many others on a Toronto team that is entering a new era.</p><p>McDaniels, a lanky, 6-foot-10 forward with a seven-foot-long wingspan, spent the back half of last season with the Philadelphia 76ers after being traded by the Charlotte Hornets. He showed some shooting potential but will mostly be used for his versatile defense. New head coach Darko Rajakovic can use McDaniels in a variety of lineups and help him continue his transition into an effective 3-and-D player.</p><p>Last season, across 80 games (56 of which came with the Hornets), McDaniels averaged 9.4 points and 4.3 rebounds per game while shooting 45.5 percent from the field and 33.2 percent from deep. The Raptors signed him to a two-year contract worth $9.3 million.</p><p>In his <a href="https://www.youtube.com/live/jW6euqWErFE?feature=share&amp;t=148" rel="noopener">introductory press conference</a> with the Raptors, McDaniels explained why taking his talents north of the border made sense for him. “I felt like it was a good fit for me,” he said. “They have a lot of guys like myself — long, athletic, very versatile, can bring different thing to the table on the court. I feel like I just it their playing style and fit with the guys on the team as well…It feels good just to be wanted by the organization and actually gonna be here. I’m just excited to be here. Just gonna play hard and do my thing out there.”</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jalen McDaniels on signing with Toronto: “I felt like it fit my playing style.” He mentioned all the long wings on the team. “It feels good to be wanted by the organization.” <a href="https://t.co/FfpRlmcf15">pic.twitter.com/FfpRlmcf15</a></p><p>— Josh Lewenberg (@JLew1050) <a href="https://twitter.com/JLew1050/status/1677000522031570944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">July 6, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>The Raptors’ offseason has been defined mostly by <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/nba-rumors-hawks-pascal-siakam-trade-efforts-with-raptors-hit-with-harsh-reality" rel="noopener">trade possibilities</a> involving Siakam and Fred VanVleet leaving for the Houston Rockets in free agency. Replacing VanVleet with Dennis Schroder was a solid move, though they will likely not be able to optimize McDaniels (and other players) due to their lack of high-level point guards. Although Siakam is a solid playmaker, Toronto will need to get more offense</p><p>Still, Jalen McDaniels should prove to be a solid addition to the Raptors. He has the potential to get even better and should be a great fit off their bench.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

He is expected to come off the bench for Toronto, though he will have to fight for minutes with OG Anunoby and Otto Porter Jr.</p><p>The 25-year-old played for the Charlotte Hornets and Philadelphia 76ers in 2022-23.

However, considering the fact that both Anunoby and Siakam have been mentioned in trade rumors as of late, there could be a chance for McDaniels to contend for a regular rotation spot under new head coach Darko Rajakovic.</p><p>The Raptors still have plenty of decisions to make, especially after <a href="https://clutchpoints.com/rockets-news-fred-vanvleet-free-agency-3-year-130-million-contract/" rel="noopener">Fred VanVleet left them</a> for the Houston Rockets.

Nonetheless, it’s still unclear what direction they would want to take.</p><p>McDaniels should fit in nicely whatever the Raptors opt to do, though. He’s just 25 and still far from his prime, though he proved during his run with the Hornets that he’s ready to contribute when given the chance.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>

As hard and scrappy as the post-Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving Nets play, the talent difference can be a little too much to overcome in the playoffs. One of the key contributors to the Sixers Game 2 win was Jalen McDaniels. McDaniels didn’t score a single point but his impact, especially defensively was felt. He’s had a major impact on the Sixers but it’s possible that they may be without him in Game 3 as the series shifts to Brooklyn. McDaniels is <a href="https://twitter.com/Ky_Carlin/status/1648828180562583553?s=20" rel="noopener">listed as questionable</a> with a non-COVID illness as per Ky Carlin of USA Today’s Sixerswire.</p><figure class="op-interactive"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p dir="ltr" lang="en">Jalen McDaniels is listed as questionable for Game 3 tomorrow with a non-COVID illness <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Sixers?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">#Sixers</a></p><p>— Ky Carlin (@Ky_Carlin) <a href="https://twitter.com/Ky_Carlin/status/1648828180562583553?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 19, 2023</a></p></blockquote><p><script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p></figure><p>Jalen McDaniels arrived on the Sixers in a deal with the Charlotte Hornets at the trade deadline. He’s quickly become one of the Sixers most productive role players off the bench. Doc Rivers trusted him to close out Game 2 instead of P.J. Tucker and the move paid off. Throughout the Sixers first two playoff games, McDaniels has been averaging 2.5 points per game, 3.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists with shooting splits of 40 percent from the field and 50 percent from three-point range.</p><p>In 24 games for the Sixers in the regular season, including three starts, McDaniels averaged 6.7 points per game and 3.2 rebounds with shooting splits of 48.8 percent shooting from the field, 40 percent shooting from the three-point line and 82.4 percent shooting from the free-throw line. If McDaniels is unable to play in Game 3, the Sixers would be without one of their best defensive players and three-point shooters.</p><figure class="op-tracker"></figure></article>    </body></html>
