Raptors: Darko Rajković extension and continuity in Toronto

Darko Rajković will not be leaving Toronto. The Toronto Raptors have agreed to a contract extension, locking in the head coach who brought the team back to NBA playoff contention. The move is more than just paperwork—it’s a resounding endorsement of this season’s work.

After a campaign in which the team exceeded expectations and made its presence felt in the postseason, the front office was unwilling to gamble on a change in leadership. Rajković achieved something rare: he instilled identity in a team searching for direction, and the extension is the natural next step. The exact details of the deal remain under wraps, but the message to the organisation is clear.
