Raptors' Alijah Martin: Agrees to re-sign with Toronto
Rotowire
Martin agreed to a two-year, $4.8 million deal to return to the Raptors on Wednesday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
The 2025 second-rounder is set for his second season with Toronto. Martin, however, was limited to 6.3 minutes per game over 23 regular-season appearances for the Raptors a year ago, so his pathway to fantasy relevance in 2026-27 appears murky at best.

Raptors' Alijah Martin: Fares well off bench
Rotowire
Martin closed Sunday's 139-87 victory over the Magic with eight points (3-7 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 13 minutes.
The Raptors won this game by 52 points, so naturally, the team was able to rely heavily on the bench down the stretch. Martin has just 18 appearances to his name this season with averages of 2.7 points and 1.1 rebounds in 6.5 minutes per contest.

Raptors' Alijah Martin: Part of crunch-time lineup Sunday
Rotowire
Martin finished Sunday's 116-115 overtime win over the 76ers with nine points (3-11 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, four steals and two blocks over 30 minutes.
Although he struggled with his shot during Sunday's overtime loss, Martin earned his minutes with his energy on the defensive side of the floor, co-leading the Raptors in stocks with fellow rookie Collin Murray-Boyles. Martin was on the floor late in the fourth quarter and all of overtime, and he has taken advantage of the extra playing time available due to the absences of Brandon Ingram (thumb), RJ Barrett (ankle) and Jakob Poeltl (back). Ja'Kobe Walter also left in the first quarter and did not return due to a right hip injury, so depending on his availability, along with that of Ingram, Barrett and Poeltl, Martin could maintain his elevated role in Monday's rematch against Philadelphia.

Raptors' Alijah Martin: Sees more minutes due to injuries
Rotowire
Martin finished Friday's 125-117 loss to Boston with seven points (3-7 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three assists, one rebound and one block over 15 minutes.
The rookie second-rounder has spent most of the 2025-26 regular season either in the G League or riding the pine with the Raptors, but he and the rest of the bench saw elevated minutes Friday due to the absences of Scottie Barnes (knee) and Brandon Ingram (thumb). Martin saw most of his minutes in the second half and posted multiple career highs. RJ Barrett exited the contest in the fourth quarter due to a left ankle injury, so Martin could remain in the rotation against the 76ers on Sunday depending on the availability of Barrett, Barnes and Ingram.
