The Toronto Raptors Monday announced that they have re-signed Patrick McCaw.


McCaw, who spent the first two seasons of his NBA career with the Golden State Warriors, joined the Raptors in mid-January after a three-game stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The 23-year-old appeared in 26 regular season games with Toronto, making one start and posting averages of 2.7 points, 1.7 rebounds and 1.0 assists while playing just over 13 minutes per game. His best performance as a Raptor came on Feb. 11, as he scored a season-high 13 points (on 5-for-9 shooting) in a two-point win over the Brooklyn Nets.

In the postseason, McCaw appeared in 11 games, with one of his most notable moments coming in Game 1 of the NBA Finals when he knocked down a big 3-pointer late in the third quarter. He has won an NBA title in each of his three seasons in the league and this year became the first player since Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal (2000-02) to win three consecutive NBA championships.
