Raptors sign PG Augustin

The Toronto Raptors announced Monday they signed free-agent point guard D.J. Augustin.

The team did not disclose terms of the deal.

Augustin averaged 4.7 points, 2.2 assists and 16.1 minutes over 76 regular-season games with the Indiana Pacers last season. He also played in 19 playoff games for the Pacers.

"Adding a young, experienced point guard to our roster was one of our objectives going into this offseason," president and general manager of basketball operations Masai Ujiri said in a statement. "D.J. will provide experience and give us depth in the backcourt."

Augustin, the ninth player chosen in the 2008 draft by the Charlotte Bobcats, has averaged 9.6 points, 4.0 assists and 24.5 minutes per game in his NBA career.
