The Toronto Raptors will take on the Miami Heat on Friday night at Summer League: Here's where to watch and what to know
The Toronto Raptors will play their penultimate game of Summer League on Friday night against the Miami Heat at 9 p.m. ET.Ja'Kobe Walter has yet to really find his shooting stroke through three games. He's shooting just 11.1% from behind the arc and 25.9% from the floor. It's nothing to be too concerned about because Walter has a track record of being a high-level shooter, but Toronto will certainly be hoping he turns it around as the team wraps up Summer League.
Ulrich Chomche looked solid last time out for Toronto as he continues to work on refining his game. The Raptors have been working on tweaking his pick-and-roll coverage to make him a little less aggressive in ball screens. Considering his size as a 6-foot-10 big man with pretty quick feet, Chomche shouldn't have to be so aggressive. Toronto wants him to trust his abilities a little more and drop back in pick-and-roll coverage.
Jamal Shead has been a great defensive addition for Toronto at Summer League but it's the other side of the ball the Raptors will be keeping an eye on for the 21-year-old point guard. He's struggled at times passing out of the pick-and-roll due to his lack of size and he's been reluctant to shoot too many three-pointers. He's been effective as a three-point shooter on limited attempts so far and it's worth seeing if he can do more in a bigger role over the next two games.
