TORONTO (AP) — Chris Bosh’s former general manager says the player was “checked out” late last season and chose not to play some of the Raptors’ final games.
Talking on radio station FAN 590 in Toronto, Bryan Colangelo said Bosh wasn’t the same player toward the end of the year.

Colangelo said on Monday’s show that whether Bosh was “mentally checked out or, you know, just wasn’t quite into it down the stretch, he wasn’t the same guy. And I think everybody saw that, just no one wanted to acknowledge it.”
Colangelo also asserted that Bosh, LeBron James and Dwyane Wade all had planned to play together years ago, even structuring their contracts so they all could become free agents together.
NBA MVP James and Bosh have joined Wade at the Miami Heat.
Said Colangelo: “This has been brewing for a while.”
