The Toronto Raptors are hosting a morning news conference with a “special guest” for what the team is calling a “milestone announcement.”
General manager and executive vice-president Bobby Webster will join the unidentified guest at the event, with the team’s cryptic announcement prompting speculation about who could appear.
The Raptors have agreed to a blockbuster trade to bring 2019 NBA Finals MVP Kawhi Leonard back to Toronto from the Los Angeles Clippers, although the deal has not yet been announced.
Longtime Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry has also been considering retirement after 20 NBA seasons and has often said he wants to retire as a member of the franchise.
