Mamukelashvili was the 54th pick in the 2021 NBA Draft out of Seton Hall.
He has also spent time with the Milwaukee Bucks over four total seasons in the league.
His career averages are 5.2 points and 3.1 rebounds per contest while shooting 47.1% from the field and 34.8% from the three-point range in 191 games.
Charania also added: "Raptors present Mamukelashvili with a larger opportunity in the frontcourt to break through in the NBA – as he has displayed glimpses such as a 34-point game in San Antonio."

The Raptors are coming off a year where they were the 11th seed in the Eastern Conference with a 32-50 record.
They missed the NBA playoffs (and the play-in tournament).

Most points in fewer than 20 minutes in NBA history. 34 points on 13/14 FG, 7/7 from 3. With his friend Flavor Flav watching.
We will never forget the Mamu legacy game."
