Scariolo-NBA: Toronto Raptors top brass in Italy

Sergio Scariolo closer to the NBA: on Thursday, Gazzetta dello Sport reports, an initial talk took place between the Virtus Bologna coach and the Toronto Raptors’ top brass, who landed in Emilia to speak with the Black Vs’ coach.

Canadian franchise president Masai Ujiri and gm Bobby Webster put Scariolo on the list of candidates to replace Nick Nurse after he was eliminated in the play-in last April 21.

Sergio Scariolo was assistant coach at the Toronto Raptors for three years, also winning an NBA title. In addition to the Americans, he is also being followed by Real Madrid.
