Longshot NBA prospect Yuta Watanabe is hoping to impress the Toronto Raptors home as the Japanese shooting guard tries again to latch on with a team.

Watanabe sent the first two years of his NBA career bouncing between the the Memphis Grizzlies and their G-League team the Memphis Hustle.

The 6-foot-8-inch (2.3 meter) 26-year-old, who is in camp with the Toronto Raptors as a non-roster invitee, admits he has a lot of work to do but feels he has a chance to finally stick full time in the NBA.
