Toronto Raptors
Best move: Signing Linas Kleiza to a four-year, $19 million deal
The Raptors managed to lure Kleiza back from overseas, with promises of substantial playing time in the coming seasons. At $19 million, the signing is certainly a bargain that promises to produce positive returns.
Worst move: Signing Amir Johnson to a five-year, $34 million deal
Amazingly, Johnson is still only 23 years old and hasn't reached his potential. But how much potential does he actually have? That's the million-dollar question, or in this case, the $34-million question. The Raptors appear to have overpaid for a player who has battled foul trouble throughout his career and contributed little. The returns on this deal won't be in for a couple of years.
