According to Spears, Lillard's reasons for preferring Miami over Toronto make sense. On top of the fact that Florida has no state tax and greater marketing potential, Lillard desires the chance to play in Miami's renowned culture alongside Jimmy Butler and Bam Adebayo.
The Raptors have been preaching the idea that 2023-24 is going to be about development and working with their young players, but Ujiri knows that Lillard becoming available is a golden opportunity that he can't pass up. Everyone except Scottie Barnes or Pascal Siakam should be on the table.
