Long boys era is DONE
ON MY KNEES AT BOSTON PIZZA 😭
not like this, man 🙁
He will be back for sure probably, play at 905 and come back later
I’m not sure he’s going to be playing NBA basketball again in this case. At least not anytime soon
Wow… Masai is ruthless
Wow that’s surprising but then again not really. Hasn’t played all year due to lung issues
I’m glad Garrett temple still here, a good vet
Damn Christian. Sad we never got to see him back in uniform.
I won’t forget that one three he knocked down last season.
I hope his health gets right and we can keep him around
Was very confused but saw Blake tweet this out:
[Koloko will get his full salary paid out. Raptors lose his non-guaranteed pseudo-team option for next year. I would not AT ALL be surprised if Koloko is brought back in for Raptors 905, and/or re-signed in the summer.](https://x.com/blakemurphyodc/status/1747826057275670744?s=46&t=sbk6yuyliVaFRQjBUBJCMQ)
That makes some sense. Guessing Koloko will be out for the year then.
Masai getting rid of all his African sons
Damn guess the respiratory issue doesn’t look like it’s getting better.
Damn. Feel like this issue might be pretty serious
Wow im shocked
Damn really sucks that he got sick because he had a lot of potential to be a solid backup big. Hope all the best to him, kinda reminds me of Zhaire Smith except less extreme.
noooooooooooooooo :((((((((
So who’s our backup big the rest of the year?
Bobby Marks apparently called this.
Man he got fucked with respiratory issues, was actually looking forward to him developing
Honestly not too surprised. If he clears waivers (which I assume he will) can the 905 sign him?
It’s a dark day for cameroonian raps fans
Man that sucks, he had a pretty good rookie year
But I was loco for Koloko (╥﹏╥)
Met him at the Pearson airport recently. Asked for a picture and he said no. Looked quite sad, understandably so.
It’s jontay season till we resign koloko
Dam Masai not fucking around
