The Raptors, a fine stable organization, announced today that they have promoted Bobby Webster to the position of general manager. He’ll be replacing Jeff Weltman, who left Toronto recently to rebuild the flailing Orlando Magic. In addition, Dan Tolzman will step up as the assistant general manager/vice president of player personnel, while Keith Boyarsky will become vice president of basketball strategy & research. This is all very official.
As per the official press release, team president (who most surely will stay in Toronto) Masai Ujiri had this to say:
“We are excited to promote Bobby, Dan and Keith for their hard work and important contributions to our program,” said Ujiri.
