Former Florida guard Alijah Martin, the 39th pick in the 2025 NBA draft, signed a two-way contract with the Toronto Raptors on Thursday, the team announced.
Martin helped the Gators to the national title last season, averaging 14.4 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.2 assists and 1.4 steals in 38 games on 35% shooting from 3-point range. His 546 total points were the 17th-most in a single season in program history.

The 6-foot-2 standout finished in double figures 31 times last season, including three 20-point performances. He produced a season-high 32 points and nine rebounds on Nov. 22.
Martin played the first four years of his career at Florida Atlantic before transferring to Florida. He helped the Owls advance to the Final Four in 2023, becoming the first player in history to start with two teams in the national semifinal round.
The 23-year-old will split his time next season between the NBA and the Raptors 905 in the G League. He is eligible to be active for up to 50 games in the NBA and will earn $636,435, equal to 50% of the minimum salary applicable to a player with zero years of service.
