The Toronto Raptors are keeping one of their depth centre options around for next season.
The Raptors exercising the $2.4 million team option on centre Trayce Jackson-Davis and the $2.3 million option for point guard Jamal Shead for the 2026-27 season, the team announced on Monday.
Jackson-Davis was acquired by Toronto in a February deadline deal with the Golden State Warriors that sent a second-round pick the other way.
The 26-year-old only played 17 regular-season games with the Raptors, averaging 1.7 points and 1.9 rebounds while playing five minutes per game. He also made three post-season appearances in the Raptors' first-round series against the Cleveland Cavaliers, recording two points in the 126-113 Game 1 loss.
Drafted 57th overall by the Wizards in 2023 and traded to Golden State on draft night, the former Indiana product has averaged 6.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.2 assists over his three-year career.
Shead, 23, is coming off a solid sophomore season as the Raptors' backup point guard, averaging 6.6 points, 5.4 assists and 1.7 rebounds per game.
The Houston product will likely reprise his role behind Immanuel Quickley next season while also facing some competition from Raptors second-round pick Jaden Bradley, a point guard out of Arizona.
He played all 82 games last season.
