"Lawson has spent the last two years as a depth wing in the Raptors system, shuttling back-and-forth from G League games at the Paramount Find Foods Centre in Mississauga, Ont. to Scotiabank Arena in Toronto."
"Lawson's gotten more of a foothold in the rotation and taken advantage, averaging 8.4 points on 54 percent shooting in his five most recent games, not including garbage time."
"He averaged 21.6 points per game on 47/36/79 shooting splits this past season to go along with 4.8 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 steals."
"Last season Lawson was also converted to a standard contract towards the end of the season, before being waived and re-signing on a two-way to start 2025-26."
