The Toronto Raptors have narrowed their GM search down to four candidates, according to David Aldridge of NBA.com. The latest name to surface is former Portland Trail Blazers General Manager Kevin Pritchard, who currently holds a front office position with the Indiana Pacers. Via The Score: “The Toronto Raptors have narrowed their search for a new General Manager down to four… Three names in the mix – Ed Stefanski, Jeff Bower and Dennis Lindsey – were already known to be in the running for the job, but Aldridge’s report includes a new name in former Portland Trail Blazers executive Kevin Pritchard. According to the report, Pritchard is ‘a strong candidate’ for the position. Pritchard was the Blazers General Manager from 2007 to 2010, recording a .500 record or better in three straight seasons. He is currently working in the player personnel department for the Indiana Pacers, but the report indicates that he can leave his position if he obtains a General Manager job with another franchise.”
