Normally in a Las Vegas Summer League recap I wouldn’t talk about game flow at all, given that what matters is really the individual performances, but tonight’s game was a little weird, so I’ll at least pay the game flow some lip service. The Raptors got their tails thoroughly whupped by the Spurs through three quarters, primarily by Lonnie Walker IV. Walker, selected out of Miami by the Spurs with the 19th pick in the 2018 draft, looked altogether too good for Summer League, as he consistently stepped confidently into pull-up jumpers, bouncing high into his shot and often knocking them down with ease even when contested.
Heroic Summer League comeback cut short as Raptors lose to the Spurs, 93-90
