Teammates encourage Raptors rookie Terence Davis to stay calm and carry on

The numbers next to Terence Davis II’s name in the Raptors boxscore at halftime Tuesday left much to be desired.

The 22-year-old guard was 0-for-5 from the field against Milwaukee through two quarters, and 0-for-3 from three-point range. He contributed two defensive rebounds, a pair of assists and a steal, but he also had one of Toronto’s seven turnovers. Coach Nick Nurse gave Matt Thomas the late second-quarter minutes usually logged by Davis.

It wasn’t what Toronto has come to expect from the undrafted rookie. The frenetic atmosphere in Scotiabank Arena, with fans anticipating a future playoff tilt with the regular season’s best team, got to Davis.
