They found their new coach Toronto Raptorswho announced his hiring Darko Rajakovic.
The Serb will become the first non-American or Canadian head coach in the history of the NBA, something that he almost achieved Sergio Scariolo. Her Italian technician Virtues was rumored to be the leading candidate for the Raptors’ bench, but in the end the team’s management chose Rajakovic.
Nevertheless, Scariolo showed that… he doesn’t hold a grudge, after he sent a congratulatory message to the Serbian coach on his recruitment via twitter. “Congratulations and good luck to my good friend coach Darko Rajakovic! Good choice, it’s great to see a European coach getting a chance to prove his worth as a head coach in the NBA! A sincere thank you to the Raptors, very important to receive such appreciation from my old team!”
