The Toronto Raptors are adding president of basketball operations duties onto the plate of general manager Bobby Webster, ESPN reported Monday.

Webster will continue to serve as the team’s GM as well.

Webster, 40, takes over the team’s top front office role from Masai Ujiri, who was fired on June 27. Ujiri hired Webster in 2013 as the team’s vice president of strategy.

A native of Hawaii, Webster was hired by the NBA in 2006 and advised teams on salary cap and luxury tax details. He remained with the league until moving to the Raptors.

In June of 2017, Webster was promoted to Raptors general manager in place of Jeff Weltman. He was the NBA’s youngest general manager at the time at age 32, and two seasons later, the franchise won its lone NBA title.

Toronto has made the playoffs just twice since winning the championship in 2019 and has not advanced to the postseason in any of the past three seasons. The Raptors finished 30-52 last season, slightly better than their 25-57 mark in 2023-24 under head coach Darko Rajakovic.
