Toronto re-upped with All-Star point guard Kyle Lowry on a three-year, $100 million pact.
Per Sporting News (via TSN 1050 Radio):
“Definitely,” Webster said. “We all do our due diligence. Things don’t always make sense, but if they do we’re always prepared.”
“That’s a lot of talk that we do, that doesn’t really see the light of day that happens behind closed doors,” Webster added.
“When a player like that becomes available you’d be remiss not to call.”
