The Raptors recalled Omoruyi from the G League's Raptors 905 on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi signed a 10-day pact with the Raptors on Jan. 8, though he has yet to see action for the parent club. The 27-year-old will have three more opportunities to suit up for the Raptors before his contract comes to an end.

The Raptors assigned Omoruyi to the G League's Raptors 905 on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi signed a 10-day contract with the Raptors on Wednesday but will remain in the G League for the time being. Even when Omoruyi is with the NBA club, it is unlikely he will receive significant playing time.

Toronto signed Omoruyi to a 10-day contract Wednesday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi has averaged 19.6 points and 7.6 rebounds for Toronto's G League affiliate Raptors 905 and will get a chance to prove himself at the NBA level. Although Toronto isn't dealing with any major injuries, Ochai Agbaji suffered a back bruise Wednesday, and the team has five games in the next nine days, which could be enough for Omoruyi to crack the rotation. The 27-year-old has appeared in 87 NBA games during his four-year career and logged 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds across 9.1 minutes per game in 2023-24 with the Wizards.

The Timberwolves waived Omoruyi on Friday.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi was unable to secure a roster spot after signing an Exhibit 10 deal earlier this offseason. Omoruyi will likely spend the 2024-25 campaign with the Iowa Wolves of the G League.

Omoruyi agreed to a deal with Minnesota on Monday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
EDGE Analysis
Terms of the deal haven't been reported yet, though it's likely an Exhibit 10 deal in which Omoruyi will compete for a roster spot in training camp. Omoruyi made 43 regular-season appearances for the Wizards in 2023-24, averaging 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.1 minutes.

Omoruyi will be waived by Washington on Wednesday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi's salary of $2.2 million for the 2024-25 season is non-guaranteed, so this move isn't a big surprise. When the transaction is official, Washington's roster will be down to 16 players, not including those on two-way contracts. In 43 regular-season appearances for the Wizards, Omoruyi produced averages of 4.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in 9.1 minutes.

Omoruyi registered 26 points (11-17 FG, 4-6 3Pt), two rebounds and five assists across 23 minutes during Sunday's 132-122 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi had a career night in the Wizards' regular-season finale, coming off the bench to lead the team in scoring. Omoruyi played 10-plus minutes in each of the last seven games of the season and averaged 8.0 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.1 assists over 15.6 minutes per game over that span.

Omoruyi (illness) is available for Friday's game against Chicago, Bijan Todd of Monumental Sports Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi was questionable for Friday's matchup due to a non-COVID illness, but he'll be able to suit up despite the issue. Over his last five appearances, he's averaged 4.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 14.8 minutes per game.

Omoruyi is questionable for Friday's game against the Bulls due to a non-COVID illness.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi has been back in action over the past five matchups after missing seven games due to an ankle injury, but he's dealing with an illness ahead of Friday's matchup. If he's unavailable against the Bulls, Anthony Gill and Tristan Vukcevic could see an uptick in playing time.

Omoruyi (ankle) totaled three points (1-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound and one assist in 14 minutes Tuesday in the Wizards' 117-113 win over the Bucks.
EDGE Analysis
Omoruyi wasn't particularly effective in his return from a seven-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, but the injury-plagued Wizards were likely just happy to reclaim some health in the frontcourt. With Washington listing Marvin Bagley (knee) and Richaun Holmes (toe) out for Wednesday's game against the Lakers, Omoruyi could be in store for a larger role in the second leg of the back-to-back set.
