TORONTO — He may be leaving Toronto, but Serge Ibaka says he’ll always be a Raptor.
The 31-year-old took to social media Sunday to dole out thanks for his time with the team, saying “the love I have received on this journey I will never forget.”
Ibaka says he had great teammates and staff with the Raptors, and “a fan base that is second to none.”
His message comes amid multiple reports that Ibaka, a free agent, has signed a two-year, US$19-million contract with the Los Angeles Clippers.
