Augustin has been cut by the Toronto Raptors, TSN 1050 reports.

Analysis:

Augustin has suffered a career-low 8.2 minutes per game and the Raptors needed to waive a player in order to complete the Rudy Gay trade. The victim was Augustin, who was once drafted 9th overall by the Charlotte Bobcats in 2008. Augustin started the year as backup point guard to Kyle Lowry but has fallen behind Dwight Buycks in that regard as well.
