Faced with the Hornets, the Raptors played their last home game of the regular season. And as since the end of February, Chris Boucher did not play. His last match dates back to February 26, in Indiana, and the last time Canadian fans were able to see him, it was the day before against the Celtics.
What has happened since? It was generally put in the fridge. This is why, after six weeks without playing, the idea of relaunching it for a last lap was not viable. “We had this discussion with him before and I did not want to put him in difficulty by playing after being absent for several weeks”, announced Before the Darko Rajakovic part.
Unless unexpected entry into the last two games, Chris Boucher will have missed the last 23 matches of the Toronto season, largely by decision of the franchise and not because of a possible injury. It could have been transferred before the deadline, even being cut, but it did not happen. The two camps, that of the Raptors and that of the player, have implemented this policy for the last weeks of the season.
“It is obvious that it is not ideal, but it is the business”confirms the 2019 NBA champion. “I try to be positive, to see the good side of things and I think I have made a happy new year. I grew up humanly and sportingly so it will help. I take these little victories. The season has passed fairly quickly so I will enjoy the latest matches and we'll see what's going on. »»
He is indeed at the end of the contract so it is clearly possible that he will live his last moments in Canada. Even if our colleagues in Sportsnet explain that the interest is mutual between the two camps to continue the adventure. While knowing that Raptors' finances, with the extension of Brandon Ingram, will not be able to offer him a contract as important as that he had signed in 2022 (35 million dollars over three years).
“There are conversations but, for the moment, it is a question of ending the season. As we know, I have an excellent relationship with the raptors so we will wait for summer discussions ”announces Chris Boucher.
