Repor: Undrafted Ole Miss G Terence Davis lands 2-year deal with top NBA team
One of the more surprising players to go undrafted during the 2019 NBA Draft was Ole Miss guard Terence Davis, who seemed to perform well during the pre-draft process.
After the draft, he was given the opportunity to sign a couple of two-way deals with NBA teams, which include stipulations that the player gets paid proportionally based on whether they’re in the NBA or the G-League.
Davis held out, though, and it turned out to pay off for him. According to NBA insider Shams Charania, Davis has signed a two-year deal with the Toronto Raptors:
Sources: Undrafted Ole Miss guard Terence Davis has agreed to a two-year deal with the Toronto Raptors, with full guarantee in Year One. Davis turned down two-way deals during the June NBA Draft; now signing full contract.

That’s a big deal for Davis, who now has a full guarantee for year one and gets to play for the defending NBA champions.
Yes, the Raptors lost star F Kawhi Leonard this offseason already, but it’s still a good team. We’ll see what sort of role Davis can make for himself this year in Toronto.
