Raptors exec apologizes

TORONTO general manager Masai Ujiri apologized for a foul-mouthed speech prior to the Raptors’ playoff against the Brooklyn Nets.

Ujiri said he was trying to whip up the crowd prior to Saturday’s Eastern Conference clash when he concluded his remarks by shouting “F--- Brooklyn!”

The crowd responded with an ovation. “It was the wrong choice of words out there,” Ujiri said. “This thing is really not about me, it’s about the players and the playoffs. I don’t like them, but I apologize.”
