TL;DR Summary

Raptors president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri cited "complacency" and "selfishness" as season-long problems for the team, leading to the dismissal of head coach Nick Nurse. Ujiri also mentioned Nurse's reluctance to play young bench players as a factor in the decision. The coaching staff was known to be "less than cohesive," and sweeping changes are expected. Ujiri praised Jakob Poeltl and expects Otto Porter Jr. to return next season. Ujiri denies rumors of leaving for the Wizards' front office vacancy.
