I’ve had many discussions with Masai Ujiri about his mentor, Nelson Mandela. Every time we discuss “Madiba” I learn more about both the famous South African Nobel Peace Prize winner and Masai himself, almost as if the topic of Mandela is a window towards his own soul and what makes him tick. This year marks the fourth “Giants of Africa” event that the Raptors and Ujiri are hosting to both celebrate Nelson Mandela’s life and provide once in a lifetime experience for young basketball players.
