TORONTO - Masai Ujiri believes that change has to start at the top. That includes him, the Toronto Raptors team president.
Ujiri was insistent that the Raptors have to refresh their culture after a disappointing season led to the firing of head coach Nick Nurse on Friday. Ujiri said that he personally has to do “many things” to recapture the energy of Toronto’s first NBA championship team in 2019.
“Look at the roster maybe in a different way. We have to figure out shooting on this roster in some kind of way. We have to figure out who fits and who doesn’t fit,” said Ujiri during a news conference after Nurse’s dismissal was announced.
