Raptors Fire Masai Ujiri After The NBA Draft 😯

the day after the drafts the Toronto Raptors fire Messiah Jiri i just think it shows a lot of dysfunction for him to actually be fired the morning after the draft i think it’s weird
he just acquired Brandon Ingram at the trade deadline and then resigned him to a contract extension a lot of that trade package was from the Pascal Seakum deal the Pascal Seakum trade I wrote about last year and saying this was a horrible trade they got a what I deemed a very poor return for Pascal Seakum none of those picks were valuable even though you can put on the billboard three first round picks they were they were late first what this says is that as a leader Messiah Jiri lost his way you can see how the post championship chapter of the Toronto Raptors was really poor ownership is probably right about certain things with his performance in recent years ever since the championship

The Toronto Raptors shocked the NBA world by firing Masai Ujiri — just one day after the 2025 NBA Draft. After 13 years, a 2019 championship, and a reputation as one of the league’s boldest executives, Ujiri is out. Why now?

Kevin O’Connor and Tom Haberstroh dig into what really led to Ujiri’s departure — from growing tension with Raptors ownership to a string of questionable moves involving Pascal Siakam and Fred VanVleet. They also break down Toronto’s draft picks and the quiet rise of GM Bobby Webster, who may have been running the show behind the scenes all along.

Is this the start of a new era in Toronto… or a franchise slipping into chaos? 👀
