GREAT Britain's Pops Mensah-Bonsu has returned to the Toronto Raptors, less than a week after being released by the Houston Rockets.

BACK AGAIN: GB's Pops Mensah-Bonsu has resigned for the Toronto Raptors after he was released from the Houston Rockets

Mensah-Bonsu, a member of Chris Finch's EuroBasket squad earlier this year, had spent last season with the Canadian outfit, before heading to the Rockets in the close season as a free agent.

But the Londoner failed to make an impact for the Texas side, averaging just 1.3 points per game in the opening weeks of the season and featuring for just 12 minutes.

He has been swiftly snapped up by his former employees however, having averaged more than five points with the Raptors in his 19 games.

Mensah-Bonsu opted for a return to Toronto despite interest from the New Jersey Nets but the Raptors must decide by December 20 if they want to keep him until the end of the season.

i think he should have signed for nets instead of toronto.because as a torontonian what i see when i watch any raptor game is that the coach prefares to play rockies and loose games instead playing experience juys and win matches.
