Chris Boucher on free agency: I want to be able to help a team win. I think that I’m able to fill a lot of roles. One thing that’s good about me is you can put me almost anywhere except point guard. I’ll figure out a way to be impactful and consistent. I think I’m at the point where I can be on a team to help them win, play meaningful minutes, have a consistent role, and not hoping or not knowing what’s coming next.

More on this storyline
Chris Boucher: I grew up in a difficult part of Montreal. One thing that wasn’t expensive that we were able to do was play basketball, go to the parks, and play with whoever was on the court. At the time, I was kind of small. I was able to shoot a little bit, and then I got taller. I wanted to dunk. Every day, I was getting better. I ended up growing to about 6-foot-8 and was able to shoot a little bit. I think that helped me envision playing basketball. I was 20 when I started. Even after five or six years in the NBA, I feel like I was getting better and learning things that some players already knew from playing in high school. -via HoopsHype / June 23, 2025
Chris Boucher on Raptors: They kept believing in me and kept putting me in a position to get better. That all helped me out. I think the player I am now a lot of it comes from them and seeing what I was able to do while learning from the positions I was put in. They showed me how to become a leader and a man. My life has changed a lot in the eight years that I’ve been here. A lot of things I had to learn on the fly, and I was able to do that in Toronto. -via HoopsHype / June 23, 2025
