To know Toronto Raptors president Masai Ujiri is to know his passion. Whether he is talking about the Raptors, basketball in Canada or something else entirely, it’s almost impossible to finish a conversation with him without having more energy than when it first began. Of all of Ujiri’s passions, giving back to the youth of Africa is one that’ll always be at the top of the list. Ujiri’s dedication will be on full display during the Toronto International Film Festival premiere of the Giants Of Africa documentary this Friday.
“On behalf of [director] Hubert Davis and the team that worked so hard to tell the story of these children with a dream in Africa, we are honoured that Giants Of Africa will be showcased at one of the world’s greatest film festivals,” Ujiri said.
