Khem Birch: I want to play for Canada in the Olympics
Steven Leung: “Right now I want to play.” – Khem Birch on playing for Team Canada in the Olympics. He adds that he can’t make any promises (probably because of his impending free agency), but the desire is definitely there. “The Olympics are on my bucket list.”
Josh Lewenberg: Khem Birch: “Playing for this team means a lot to me. Me and my dad used to watch a lot of Toronto Raptors games growing up… This is a surreal moment for me. I can’t even put it into words. I’m so happy to be here right now.”
Josh Lewenberg: Birch said his cousin had a poster of Carter from the dunk contest on her wall as they were growing up. He also remembers supporting the Raptors through their post-VC struggles. “My dad used to always complain about the team, yell at the TV and stuff. And now I’m on the team.”
