Woj: Raptors still have work to do to keep Kawhi in Toronto



It actually happened, the Toronto Raptors are NBA champions.



It’s been less than 24 hours since the Raptors captured their first ever NBA title in franchise history and congratulatory messages are still coming from Canadians and fans around the world. On Friday afternoon, Cincinnati Reds first baseman and Toronto, Ontario native Joey Votto shared a message thanking all the Raptors staff and players who made the championship possible.



From the training staff and coaching staff to the front office, Votto thanked everyone within the organization and went into further detail when it came to thanking the players, which included the Reds first baseman calling Kyle Lowry the greatest Raptor of all-time and offering up his unused Presto pass to Kawhi Leonard if he stays in Toronto.
