Bilal Coulibaly Out For Season With Fractured Wrist

Masai Ujiri joined the broadcast during the Toronto Raptors Summer League on Saturday. After discussing his team’s young players, Ujiri was asked about the situation with Sasha Vezenkov. The Raptors acquired Vezenkov this summer in a deal with the Sacramento Kings.

“We’re still having that conversation. He had a tough time in the NBA last year. We are trying to figure it out, and what he wants to do. The right decision will be made eventually,” Ujiri said. “I think he’s a phenomenal player, had a tough season last season, those things happen, great shooter. Whatever happens, we’re going to make the best out of this situation. We support him in every way, and we know where our team is going. So, hopefully soon.”

Vezenkov reportedly let the Kings know he wanted to be traded to a different team, or to be allowed to return to Europe. After being traded to the Raptors, reports came out that Vezenkov had already agreed to contract terms with Olympiacos in Greece. The soon-to-be 29-year-old forward won’t be able to leave Toronto without being waived or working a buyout agreement with the Raptors.
