The 27-year-old was able to get some time with the big club in April averaging 2.3 points in 14 games with Toronto. 

Brown was selected in the second-round out of NC State by the Timberwolves in the 2013 NBA Draft. He's spent time with the Sixers, Timberwolves, Suns.

The Raptors also freed up roster spots recently by waiving Alfonzo McKinnie and rescinding a qualifying offer to Malcolm Miller.
