Toronto Raptors President and General Manager Masai Ujiri announced Tuesday the club and head coach Dwane Casey have agreed on principal terms of a three-year contract extension through the 2018-19 season.
The past season, Casey guided the Raptors to a team-record 56 regular season wins, an Atlantic Division championship and a berth in the Eastern Conference Finals.
In his five campaigns at the helm of the Raptors, Casey has posted a 210-184 record (.533), including a .622 mark (153-93) over the past three seasons. The 153 victories from 2013-16 is tops in the Eastern Conference.
Casey was named head coach of the Raptors on June 21, 2011, just nine days after he helped lead the Dallas Mavericks to the 2011 NBA Championship. He has served as a head coach, associate head coach and assistant coach during his 21 seasons in the NBA.
