Exclusive Interview With Marcus Banks

This summer Marcus Banks seemed to be a lightning rode for controversy and speculation. Between not playing in Las Vegas for the Raptors to being rumored as part of a deal involving the Dallas Mavericks, the veteran combo guard seemed to continually see his name in the newspaper for all the wrong reasons. Because of that during the Raptors media day on Monday he was one of the players I targeted to talk with about what went down this summer. Banks had a grin from ear-to-ear as he got the chance to explain the truth behind why he didn’t participate in Las Vegas, rumors about him being dealt to Dallas and his goals for the upcoming season.
