The Toronto Raptors have been busy this season.
They traded small forward Rudy Gay to the Sacramento Kings and should-have-been All-Star point guard Kyle Lowry has been at the center of trade talks.
Raptors’ president Masai Ujiri didn’t rule out a potential trade, but told Basketball Insiders’ Steve Kyler he has not been engaged in talks.
Raptors president Masai Ujiri talked with a few reporters… said he hasn’t closed the door… saying “we haven’t done anything yet”

Ujiri was complimentary of his team taking advantage of their opportunity, but pointed to the overall conference as a need to be measured.

Ujiri said he really has not heard from anyone lately, actually showed me his phone… a lot of calls from the family, not NBA GMs

Ujiri said that could change next week, but nothing going on now and was very genuine about where things stood.

Ujiri is known to be active at the deadline, so the Raptors are certainly a team to watch.
