Ujiri Considering Letting Raptors Take Step Back

Masai Ujiri has yet to make a decision on Dwane Casey's tenure as head coach of the Toronto Raptors.

"I'm still studying it, we're still gathering all the information," Ujiri told Sportsnet 590 The FAN in regards to whether a decision has been made on Casey's future.

Approximately 20 minutes later, Ujiri told competing station TSN 1050 the same thing.

"We're still going to go through the process of looking at the things we did well and the things we didn't do so well," he said. "When that happens, we will make a decision and move forward."

Casey has two years and $8 million remaining on his contract.

Ujiri said taking a step backwards may be necessary for the Raptors.

"That's an option," Ujiri told TSN. "Everything we are going to do is going to be what's good for this organization and competing for a championship in the future."
