Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
I really cant tell for sure if that really is Butler on my phone but if it is, an opposing team's player can just come in and get a workout at the Rap's practise/training facility?

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Per Jimmy's IG stories, yeah he's in Toronto celebrating his birthday as well as one of his friends. Well, Jimmy's agent that he's really close friends with is from Toronto so he comes to town often. He's just using the Scotiabank Arena's practice court - i'm sure it can easily be rented out. Not the first time other team's players come to get a workout in. I remember Patrick Patterson using the OVO facilities a couple of years back.

As a city worker, I was able to rent out the OVO center free this past summer, I took my youth group there for a ball run

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
I haven’t seen that Scotiabank Arena practice gym in forever and then yesterday somebody posts a video of Scottie working out there and today its Jimmy Butler.
That white “Raptors” table has been sitting there for at least 10 years. We don’t even use that font anymore lol.

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Clearly, Butler wants to join the Raptors.

How'd you swing that? I know some city workers. If it's a thing, I'm gonna reach out to them.

They offered availability dates during the summer to our unit. I'm in the Community Youth Development Unit for the City of Toronto. I'm one of the cities 31 youth outreach workers.

Doesn't look like he'll be posting those Raptors runs. He's been uploading runs that took place more recently.

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
I was stuck in dt traffic after the blue jays game and I saw Jeff dowtin walking on Adelaide
He was dressed comfy in a loose hoodie but I could definitely tell he put on about 10-15 lbs this summer

He actually looks like he’s lost a few pounds of hoodie.

Scottie barnes commented eliteeeee on that one too, so seems like they're on good terms. Still found it odd that darko and the organization in general did not talk about siakam all offseason. Made it seem like he wasn't even on the team anymore.
