Raps Tender Offer To Turkoglu

The Raptors are apparently preparing to offer former Orlando Magician, Hedo Turkoglu. How much, you ask? BC is offering 60 million over 5 years for the Mike Jordan of Turkey, overpowering the Portland Trailblazers offer of 50 mill over the same time span.

Turkoglu, 30, found his niche while playing with Orlando (and against the Raps). In his best season with the Magic (2007-2008), Hedo put up 19.5 points, 5 assists, and 5.7 boards. If he were to sign the deal, the Raps would have Hedo until he is 35. The lady Turkoglu is also said to have an affinity for Toronto.

No other Raptor offers to free agents have been made public yet.
