As the saying goes, “it takes two to tango.” Raptors president Masai Ujiri echoed a similar sentiment while addressing the swirling rumors that had his team linked to former Blazers star Damian Lillard.
During the team’s media day on Monday, Ujiri was asked about the team’s interest in Lillard. While he said Toronto will “always” put themselves in a position to have an opportunity when these types of deal came along, he had one comment that jumped out above the rest, as Adam Laskaris of the Daily Hive Toronto reported.
"Sometimes these things are sensationalized in a way that gets people a little bit too anxious. We're always going to put ourselves in the right place to have opportunity when these things come along. I think there's a reason why our names always mentioned [in trade rumours].... we are aggressive... it takes two to make a deal.... we will continue to attack those things. The right one will come,” Ujiri said.
