Sun Nov 18 2012 | 11:06 | Raptors hire Jamaal Magloire as consultant |
The Raptors have hired Jamaal Magloire as a "basketball development consultant and community ambassador." |
We'll consider this the equivalent of a retirement announcement for Magloire, who was waived by the Raptors during training camp this season. The one-time All-Star has career averages of 7.2 points and 6.5 rebounds in 12 NBA seasons. |

Raptors sign veteran C Jamaal Magloire for training camp. |
Details of the contract haven't been disclosed, but it's almost certainly non-guaranteed. Magloire's odds of making the team are very slim, but he could stay with the franchise in a coaching or front office role. |

Mon Sep 10 2012 | 17:25 | Update: Raptors will still sign Magloire |
The Raptors will give Jamaal Magloire a partially-guaranteed contract, according to the Toronto Star, but with 16 players under contract he may not make the regular season roster. |
The signing of Dominic McGuire maxed out Toronto's roster and made the addition of Magloire unlikely, but it seems the team will let him fight for a spot during training camp. Beat writer Doug Smith suggests that "if Magloire doesn't stick on the roster he ... [could be hired] somewhere in the front office or in player development." |

Jamaal Magloire is now unlikely to receive a non-guaranteed training camp invite from the Raptors. |
The signing of Dominic McGuire apparently eliminated Magloire from Toronto's plans. With averages of just 1.2 points and 3.3 rebounds last season, Magloire's NBA career may be over. |

Jamaal Magloire will receive a non-guaranteed contract from the Raptors. |
Magloire was with the team in 2011-12, and now he'll enter training camp on a non-guaranteed deal. Toronto does need some depth behind Jonas Valanciunas and Aaron Gray, so Magloire could conceivably stick around. He averaged 1.2 points and 3.3 rebounds in 34 games last year. |

Jamaal Magloire has no interest in retiring. |
"There's no chance of that," he said. Dwane Casey wants the Raptors to re-sign the veteran, and it shouldn't take anything more than the veteran's minimum to get that done. |

Sat Jan 14 2012 | 10:09 | Magloire horrible from FT line this season |
Jamaal Magloire is shooting 2-of-11 (18%) from the FT line this season. |
Magloire airballed a FT in the clutch on Friday, and this should serve as a reminder to avoid him even if he's playing more while Andrea Bargnani (calf) is out. |

Fri Jan 13 2012 | 13:01 | Casey leaning toward Magloire as starter |
Dwane Casey said that he's "leaning toward" starting Jamaal Magloire while Andrea Bargnani (calf) is out. |
Magloire would start alongside Amir Johnson with Ed Davis coming off the bench. Magloire played just five minutes in his last game, while Davis logged 14 minutes (six points, six rebounds and a steal) in a reserve role. Magloire might start, but Davis offers significantly more upside and has a solid opportunity to put up some versatile stat lines while Bargnani is out. |

Thu Dec 30 2010 | 15:08 | Magic look unsuccessfully for backup big man |
The Magic have made inquiries about numerous veteran backup centers, including Ronny Turiaf, Tony Battie, Nazr Mohammed, and Jamaal Magloire. |
Orlando doesn't have much to offer, however, as they're looking to unload Jason Williams, Daniel Orton, Quentin Richardson, Chris Duhon, and perhaps a second-round pick. This report just highlights how few quality big men are available in the NBA. |

Mon Jul 19 2010 | 11:59 | Magloire signs one-year deal w/ Heat |
Veteran center Jamaal Magloire has officially signed a one-year contract to remain with the Heat next season. He will earn the veteran's minimum. |
The Sun-Sentinel accurately sums up Magloire's value for the Heat -- "a bruiser on the court and a stabilizing presence in the locker room." He boasts career averages of 7.7 points and 6.7 rebounds, but isn't likely to even reach those numbers in Miami's suddenly stacked frontcourt. |

Sat Jul 17 2010 | 11:42 | Jamaal Magoire expected to re-sign w/ Heat |
Veteran center Jamaal Magloire is expected to sign a one-year deal with the Heat for the veteran's minimum. |
Magloire is basically an insurance policy in case anything happens to Zydrunas Ilgauskas or Joel Anthony, but NBA teams can never have enough legitimate centers on their bench. Opportunistic, ring-seeking veterans continue to stampede toward Miami. |
