Season Stats

Prior to his arrival in Chicago, Augustin’s averages consisted of 9.4 points and 3.9 assists per contest, but his playing time decreased over the past couple of seasons.

And after just 10 games into the year, the Raptors deemed him as expendable.

Well, you know the saying about one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, right?

This was definitely the case with Augustin.
