Caboclo gets booted from Brazilian team for cause

The Toronto Raptors have to be very disappointed. Bruno Caboclo has been kicked off the Brazilian national team after refusing to re-enter an AmeriCup game.

Details are sketchy, but unless Bruno claims (and can prove) he was injured, there’s no way to spin an incident like this into neutral territory. It’s bad news; the only question is how bad.

I’m sure Raptors management is doing everything it can to uncover the details. After all, a physical problem you can live with, but a player whose problem is between his ears, you can’t.
