The Raptors have signed 30-year old small forward Hedo Turkoglu to a 5-year contract worth slightly more than $50 million bucks. Turkoglu played in 77 games (all starts) for the Magic last season and he averaged 36.6 minutes, 16.8 points, 5.3 rebounds and 4.9 assists per game. This was a good signing for the Raptors as Turkoglu’s style fits the running game the Raptors like on offense. Turkoglu has now played in 678 games (374 starts) in his NBA career and he has averaged 27.9 minutes, 12.3 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game. Turkoglu is also a good three point shooter hitting 38.5% of his shots from that range.

UPDATE: Hedo Turkoglu was officially acquired in a big 4-team trade involving the Mavericks, Grizzlies and Magic.
