Jeremy Lin to Sign With Raptors After Buyout With Hawks Complete

Jeremy Lin is averaging 10.7 points and 3.5 assists this season.

Hawks guard Jeremy Lin is working on a buyout with Atlanta that will allow him to sign with the Raptors, his agents told Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN.com.

Lin is averaging 10.7 points and 3.5 assists while shooting 46.6% from the field in his ninth season.

Atlanta was Lin's seventh team in his career. He joined the squad after suffering a torn ACL in the first game of the 2017-18 season.

The Raptors are currently second in the East at 41-16. They recently traded Delon Wright, one of their backup guards, in a deal that brought in Marc Gasol from the Grizzlies.
