In Sonny Weems’ blog on hoopshype.com, the ex-Raptor says that if he were to return to the NBA he wouldn’t consider Toronto.
After complaining about the cold weather in Lithuania where he currently plies his trade for Zalgiris Kaunas, Weems claims he is underappreciated by his last NBA team.
“Some people ask me about the Raptors. Well, Toronto is not my team. They don’t mention me in their future plans or anything like that. A couple other NBA teams are really interested in me and that’s what I’m looking for. I’m not just focused on Toronto because you read articles about the team and my name never comes up. I’ll just focus on finishing this season and find the best possible team. I have some overseas teams also interested, but my main goal is going back to the NBA. If it’s not possible, I’ll stay in Europe.”
Weems averaged 9.2 ppg, 2.6 rpg, and 1.8 apg in 59 games for the Toronto Raptors last season.
