Hope EVERYBODY heals up. That was a fantastic playoffs from start to finish. Lotta great memories. Embiid is the one that stays with me the most. Those tears made clear his contract is NOT the primary motivation for why he plays the game. That was soooo damn pure

Meanwhile, Oprah Winfrey offered her congratulations to the Raptors along with sharing some news: her Toronto “Your Path Made Clear” show (which was supposed to take place on Friday and cancelled in case a Game 7 was required), is back on, and will now take place on Sunday, June 16.
“Heading to Canada. Toronto’s gone crazy,” says Winfrey in a video she shared, in which she’s packing for her upcoming trip to Toronto. “I’m heading to oh Canada’,” she then starts singing, “can’t wait to see you, oh Canada.”
O Canada! I’m excited to be coming back for the #PathMadeClear Tour. If you’re coming to the show, I want to hear where you are on your path. What is the dream you hold for yourself? See you Sunday! We’ll be celebrating that @raptors win
