Overview
- The agreement was reported Tuesday by Chris Haynes and confirmed by multiple outlets as a one-year two-way contract that fills an open two-way slot on Toronto’s offseason roster.
- Jemison went undrafted out of UAB in 2023 and has spent three pro seasons moving between the NBA and the G League with 76 regular-season appearances for five teams.
- He played 13 games for the New York Knicks in 2025–26, totaling 13 points and 18 rebounds in 82 minutes while spending much of the year with the Westchester Knicks in the G League.
- Because Jemison already has three years of NBA service, this will be his final season eligible for a two-way deal and he could reach restricted free agency next summer if he remains on the contract and is not waived or promoted.
- The signing adds low-cost frontcourt depth behind Jakob Poeltl and Trayce Jackson-Davis, joins two existing two-way players on the Raptors roster, and leaves the Knicks with more center openings to address before training camp.
