The Raptors will amnesty Linas Kleiza. Seems like a waste with only one year left on his contract, but I guess the Raptors don't really have any horrible contracts anymore now that Andrea is gone.

The Toronto Raptors plan to amnesty forward Linas Kleiza on Tuesday, a league source told Yahoo! Sports.
Kleiza had previously exercised a player option in his Raptors contract to make $4.6 million next season. The Raptors, however, decided Monday to use the amnesty clause on Kleiza, a source said. The move will save Toronto from a luxury-tax hit, although the franchise still has to pay Kleiza's salary.
