The Raptors signs Bruno Fernando replacement to a 10-day contract

Luke Adams signs Orlando Robinson to a 10-day contract with the Raptors.

Orlando Robinson, a free agency center, has signed a 10-day deal with the Raptors, the organization announced in a news release today.

Eugene Omoruyi’s 10-day contract with Toronto ended overnight on Friday, clearing up the 15th position on the team’s regular roster, therefore there was no need for a corresponding roster transfer.

In order to add depth at center behind Domantas Sabonis and Alex Len, Robinson, 24, joined the Kings as a free agency last summer after spending two seasons with the Heat from 2022–24.

Before being dismissed earlier this month in front of the league-wide salary guarantee deadline, the former Fresno State star played in just nine games for Sacramento, averaging 2.1 points and 1.6 rebounds in 6.3 minutes per game.

The Raptors cut big man Bruno Fernando the same day the Kings waived Robinson, thus the newcomer will take Fernando’s place on the depth chart, giving head coach Darko Rajakovic another frontcourt option.

During his ten days with the Raptors, Robinson will receive $119,972, and the team will also incur a cap hit of the same amount. Under the terms of the contract, Robinson will be able to play in up to four games until January 27.

Before deciding whether to keep Robinson for the remainder of the season or let him walk, Toronto will have the chance to re-sign him to a second 10-day contract after the current one ends.
