Per Sportsnet<\/a> (via RealGM<\/a>), MLSE will do everything possible to keep Ujiri. \u201cBut if you were asking \u2018Are they going to sign Masai?\u2019 I would put it at 95 percent yes.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":145,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_spbk_hide_featured":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[399],"tags":[],"rumors":[175],"typology":[183],"posizionamento":[],"class_list":["post-216148","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-nba","rumors-nba-rumors","typology-rumors"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","digistream_id":0,"digistream":false,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216148","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/145"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=216148"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/216148\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=216148"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=216148"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=216148"},{"taxonomy":"rumors","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/rumors?post=216148"},{"taxonomy":"typology","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/typology?post=216148"},{"taxonomy":"posizionamento","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sportando.basketball\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posizionamento?post=216148"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
\n\u201cThey love him, and they believe in him,\u201d said a source close to the MLSE board. \u201cHe\u2019s won them a championship and they believe he\u2019s going to win them some more.\u201d
\nUjiri first joined the Raptors in 2013.
\n\u201cMasai doesn\u2019t share a lot; he\u2019s very private and strategic in his own way,\u201d said the source close to MLSE. \u201cBut if you were asking \u2018Are they going to sign Masai?\u2019 I would put it at 95 percent yes.\u201d
\nUjiri has remained private with his intentions.
\n\u201cThey\u2019re going to try to sign him for as long as they reasonably can, [but] if they have to sign him for less [years] they\u2019ll sign him for less,\u201d said the source close to MLSE. \u201cThey don\u2019t have a lot of leverage. They want him. If he wants [a shorter deal], what are they going to say, no?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
