The Toronto Raptors fired coach Dwane Casey on Friday, league sources told ESPN.
Casey was informed on Friday morning, sources said.
Casey, the most successful coach in franchise history, lost his job after consecutive second-round playoff sweeps to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Casey has one year left on his contract, worth $6 million.
The Raptors set a franchise record with 59 regular season victories and earned the East's No. 1 seed before advancing to the Eastern Conference semifinals after a 4-2 series victory over the Washington Wizards.
The Raptors record improved in six of seven seasons under Casey.
