The Toronto Raptors have extended the Qualifying Offer to Gary Trent Jr and Nando De Colo.

The two players then become Restricted Free Agents.

In this way the team maintains control over the rights of the French guard, who has not played in the NBA since the 2013/14 season.

Trent Jr, who arrived from Portland before the last deadline, averaged 16.2 points with 3.7 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 17 games played with the Canadian team.
