Chris Boucher has been named the G League Player of the Month for November, the league announced this week.

In nine games with the Raptors 905, Boucher averaged 29.6 points, 12.1 rebounds, 4.1 blocks and 1.4 steals per contest. The big man shot an efficient 52.0 percent from the field and 34.4 percent from the 3-point line.


Boucher, who is on a two-way contract with the Toronto Raptors this season, scored 30-plus points in six of the team's nine games. He opened the month with 33 points against the Delaware Blue Coats and put up 32 points against the Westchester Knicks less than a week later.

He followed up a 32-point performance against the Maine Red Claws later in the month with 37 points against the Greensboro Swarm. Boucher then scored 30 points against the Erie BayHawks and 32 points against the Fort Wayne Mad Ants to close the month.

Boucher also recorded seven double-doubles in the month and came close to a triple-double with 19 points, 10 rebounds and seven blocks against the Long Island Nets.

Boucher led the 905 to a 8-1 record in the games he played. The franchise currently has the second-best record in the Eastern Conference.
