He averaged 14.1 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.5 assists per game for New York following the trade.
The London, England native was selected 23rd overall in the first round of the 2017 NBA Draft by the Raptors.
He spent parts of seven seasons with Toronto and averaged 11.8 points and 4.3 rebounds in 395 games.
