No he said all of this to get out of the kings. He said if he wasn’t traded somewhere else where he gets more playing time then he would go back over seas. He knows Darko. He’s not going over seas. He’s a raptor and will stay as long as he plays
Wow... looking at this comments seems to me as Raptor fans are not so nice. Going for the trash talk instead of trying to make a positive environment never works.
Don't believe the hype... he's staying. Darko believes Sasha Vezenkov could be a rotation player and help the team. He's a perfect fit for Darko's offense. The GM of Olympiacos BC, Nikos Lepeniotis, noted that while Sasha Vezenkov remains a member of the Olympiacos family in a broader sense, he is a player for the Toronto Raptors.
His agent told a Greek media outlet a few days ago he’s not leaving the NBA. This rumor of him leaving was before we traded for him. He didn’t like his role in Sacramento.
@@mikeyjames Matteo Andreani @matty_vanpersie (Jul 4) Sasha Vezenkov is coming home, again. Toronto Raptors is set to release him soon. Ready a 4 yrs, 16 M € contract with Olympiacos Piraeus. EuroLeague MVP is back.
Grange said this is fake news… he was trying to force a trade from sac for more minutes somewhere…. if he leaves he leaves but darko met him over the summer so I think he is staying.
I'm actually hearing the exact opposite about Sasha. I heard he wants to stick around for another season in the NBA and he's intent on playing with the Raptors IF they give him minutes. The only reason he'll go back to the Euros will be if we don't play him which is possible.
Not interested in Euros who think they're better than us. Let him go, we've got Mitchell and the pick, he was just side dressing, I'll miss him like I miss Dragic and a hole in the head.
Has nothing to do with the raptors he was very dissatisfied in sac have how the franchise didn't use him properly hense why sac traded him to a team with a euro coach 😂
His agent already told a Greek media outlet a few days ago that he wasn’t leaving the NBA and I don’t blame anyways for wanting to go back when he was on the Kings. . A Bulgarian guy in Sacramento ? What’s there to entertain him ? There’s nothing Sacramento especially for a European person. He spent years in Greece and loved the culture there. We got the Danforth aka Greek Town and taste of the Danforth is coming up. If he like’s their culture he will love hanging around the Danforth.
Bro, he's not trying to bolt the Raptors, he was trying to bolt his former situation, I'm sure now that he is with this organization, who happens to have a European head coach, he will be more than okay with staying with our club, your news is a little old homie.
This update came out today from Sportando after he was traded to the Raptors. I think he’s going to end up being forced to stay, but still an insane situation
@@RaptorsDigestsportstando is not his agent. His agent told a Greek media outlet he’s not leaving the NBA and that was like 5 days ago. All these rumors of him leaving are coming from Greek reporters connected to teams that’s trying to sign him. Those rumors are not coming from him or his agent which is why his agent went public in Greece and said he’s not leaving. This was even before we traded for him which leads me to believe he likely knew the Raptors were working on a trade for him.
He’s trying to boot cause you pronounced his name wrong to many times already 😂 Edit: but the kings really played yall, he been saying he wanted out the NBA 😂
The Raptors must lead the league in having the most meaningless players under contract. Except for Scottie Barnes, the rest of basically other teams rejects.
Grange isn’t telling us anything that isn’t public knowledge! His own agent told a Greek media outlet he wasn’t leaving the NBA.. Grange is no source!!!
I don’t know what’s going on with that trade cuz the Raptors haven’t even acknowledged Davion yet on none of their socials… and before yall say the trades not official yet.. it’s been a week already! How long does it take?? 🥴 Sacramento already posted McDaniels.. I honestly think something going on with that..
Wasn't this fully expected as he was going to leave NBA? Masai should have calculated this and avoided any trade involving this guy. Now we got ripped on our trade.
Makes no sense such a great player to stay on the bench. Better go back in Europe and play in every game. There are enough NBA players to warm the benches.
If he is under contract then unless he retires he has to report to the team ...then i think there is a cba rule that he couldn't just un retire and sign with another team for at least a season ...but this is a bit ridiculous that he wont show up
If Shasha doesn't want to play in the NBA and Raptors, no loss to T.O. It's probably the reason why he was thrown in the trade for virtually nothing anyways
Good work ben! Was bout to make assumptions that you were milking the vids lool, but impressed how up to date you’ve been! 🎉🎉 bravo keep it up uve been putting in the work
Now in Europe it's all about Euro 2024 football tournament and basketball journalists are writing BS articles. Vezenkov is staying in Toronto he said that in the TV interview. End of story.
We still haven’t talked about Chris Boucher, if he comes off the books and we bring back a 2 rounder and cheaper player. That could free up cap space for Gary Trent Jr.
report is knicks are in cap trouble, they drafted 18 year old dadiet at 25th pick with intention to stash him in europe so they dont have to pay him, but he is saying he is going to play in the nba this season. could see a trade of dadiet coming.

Hopefully, him leaving was common knowledge, but I don't know the real reason. Perhaps he had something worked out with a euro team
You are dreaming man
Wow... looking at this comments seems to me as Raptor fans are not so nice. Going for the trash talk instead of trying to make a positive environment never works.
if he keeps BS, than just go away, we don't need another dragic 😂
He won't leave.. Darko is the reason they traded for him.

They got Davion Mitchell and a couple picks for the useless Jalen McDaniels. I don't care if this guy walks for nothing. It's still a great trade

Dude..Who fk cares, why do Raptor fans treat bum players like superstars, buy the bum out and let him go 2 Euro Trash League...
The situation is really simple. If he is given guaranteed minutes he is staying... he just dont want to waste another year of not playing
Makes no sense such a great player to stay on the bench. Better go back in Europe and play in every game. There are enough NBA players to warm the benches.
Buy him out but only $2 mil. We don’t want him to retire. That would give us $4.4 in cap.
He already to Sac that he was going to go back. So it's not a surprise to the raptors. That's prob how they for the 2 2nd rounders.
He told the kings this after the season and it was common knowledge. Hopefully he stays
If he is under contract then unless he retires he has to report to the team ...then i think there is a cba rule that he couldn't just un retire and sign with another team for at least a season ...but this is a bit ridiculous that he wont show up
Well, if he doesn't want his US$6.4M salary, he doesn't need to report.
@@philojudaeusofalexandria9556 agreed but he would have to retire technically... You can't just say hey keep ur money I'm heading home lol
Remember when we blew up that championship team because we didn't want go into the tax without Kawhi? Good times!
This is a complete lie, show me the source?
I want to hear directly from him before I comment.
Everyone saw this coming lol. Not news
We now lose some asset for zip

not crazy at all lol it was known he wanted to go back home
he's not leaving he's going to love it here in canada😊

report is knicks are in cap trouble, they drafted 18 year old dadiet at 25th pick with intention to stash him in europe so they dont have to pay him, but he is saying he is going to play in the nba this season. could see a trade of dadiet coming.
Higher Expectations
Another dragic? 😅
Forcing a guy to stay when he wants out could hurt team morale and chemistry.
Hopefully, he's willing to give it a shot with the Raptors.
He said this while on the Kings… apparently he was trying to force a trade. the media spin is wild. Darko met with him in Europe before the draft. I think he stays.
Damn...
Raptors suck anyway lol
Pretty weak to shit on the Raptors and not tell us who your team is so we can return the salvo.
The fact he was thinking of returning to Europe was known before the trade was made. So not at all 100% surprising.
Michael Grange knows Raptors intentions?
