Dwane Casey has received a $25,000 fine by the NBA for public criticism of the officials.

Casey made his comments in the postgame press conference following the Raptors' 93-92 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Jan. 30 at Philips Arena.

Kyle Lowry is excited to be joined on the Toronto Raptors by former teammate Rudy Gay.

Lowry and Gay played together with the Memphis Grizzlies before the former was traded to the Rockets.

"He’s a potential All-Star," said Lowry. "Every year he’s got that status where he can be an All-Star, he just never gets put into an all-star game."

Gay has struggled at times this season, but could be rejuvenated by the new situation with the Raptors.

"He’s excited, he’s looking forward to the opportunity," Lowry said. "He definitely knows the situation, he knows how people are going to be looking at him to becoming that player and I think he’s going to prove it. He’s going to be able to be the All-Star that he should always be."

The Toronto Raptors earlier this season fielded trade inquiries about Andrea Bargnani, general manager Bryan Colangelo confirmed.

Bargnani has been sidelined since Dec. 12 with a right elbow injury.

"There's teams interested I know that," Colangelo said. "I've got a handful of situations that people were monitoring this whole injury process. I'm not saying anything with any concrete nature that he's going to be traded but we're looking to make our basketball team better and I've pretty much told everybody: nobody on our team is untradeable based on some of the things we are looking to do and what our objectives are."

Colangelo expects Bargnani to return with a chip on his shoulder, which could stimulate trade talks.

"You're going to see, I think, a rejuvenated Andrea Bargnani when he comes back from the injury here in a few days," Colangelo explained. "He's got something to prove. Maybe he proves just enough to create a trade conversation.

"I will tell you that any interest in Andrea -- which there was quite a bit early on in this season -- went by the wayside when he got hurt. So that's just a natural part of the business when a guy's not playing you can't really discuss him."

Bryan Colangelo admitted on NBA TV that the Toronto Raptors are shopping Andrea Bargnani.

Colangelo has spoken with Bargnani's agent about possible moves.

"I'm not saying he's asked for a trade, but he certainly would not fight or resist a [new] situation," said Colangelo.
