After taking his team to Game 6 of the Eastern Conference finals, it appears Dwane Casey will continue to serve as Toronto Raptors head coach for the foreseeable future.

"Coach Casey is our coach for the future, that is very easy; that we can do in our sleep, I think," Raptors general manager Masai Ujiri told reporters Monday.

Following back-to-back first-round exits, Casey likely needed an extended run in this year's postseason to make a strong case for keeping his job. Reports surfaced earlier this month that he would've been fired had his team lost to the Indiana Pacers, which Ujiri declined to comment on.

"I cannot say if we lost (the Indiana) series what would have happened, because we didn't lose it," Ujiri added.

Toronto has improved on its win total in every year since Casey's arrival in 2011-12. Casey has accumulated a record of 210-184 over five seasons with the Raptors, and is coming off a franchise-record 56-win campaign.

Casey has a team option valued at $4 million for the 2016-17 season, but the Raptors are reportedly already working on a contract extension with the 58-year-old.
