After thinking about it, what has changed on the team to give Ujiri hope that selfishness will not be a part of the issue there? FVV left. I wonder if he’s calling out him and not the rest of the team?
When asked why a player of Siakam’s caliber hasn’t even been offered an extension, Ujiri parroted the party line, seemingly throwing his star under the bus.
“We do believe in Pascal,” Ujiri said. “We do believe that a lot of our players didn’t play the right way last year. I said it: We were selfish. I’m not running away from that. We were selfish, and we didn’t play the right way. So let us see it when we play the right way.”
