The Toronto Raptors saw Gradey Dick round out his game as the organization made its Summer League debut Saturday night
The Toronto Raptors tipped off their Summer League schedule Saturday night and while it's rarely a good idea to read too much into Summer League first impressions, there were some takeaways from Toronto's 94-64 blowout victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder.Gradey Dick looks a lot more comfortable than he did at this time last year. His shots weren't falling, but the Raptors shouldn't be worried about that anymore.
Dick finished the game with 18 points on 6-for-17 shooting with 10 rebounds, six assists, and a charge in the fourth. He looked like a second-year lottery pick should look at Summer League and it wouldn't be surprising if he's pulled before Toronto's schedule wraps up.Maybe the most intriguing player on Toronto's roster is the No. 57 pick Ulrich Chomche who came off the bench for the Raptors on Saturday. Physically, Chomche looked totally at home.
Overall, though, it was not a terrible first showing from the 18-year-old who had eight rebounds and two assists.He seemed to spark Toronto's defense early, getting right up in the face of Oklahoma City's ball handlers, and wreaking havoc. He poked the ball loose from Keyontae Johnson, sparking a transition layup from himself, and it's clear he's going to be a tough on-ball defender for the organization.
