TORONTO — It was a hot debate in the Toronto Raptors' locker-room. Was that Jamal Shead's first dunk of the season?
At one point, Barnes stopped giving Shead the gears long enough to hug him and tell him he loves him before continuing to tease him. Shead was selected by the Sacramento Kings 45th overall in this past summer's NBA Draft but he was immediately traded with Davion Mitchell, Aleksandar Vezenkov, and a 2025 second-round pick to Toronto for Jalen McDaniels.
"It’s been speeding it up tremendously," said Shead, adding that he's learning to play with starters like Barnes, Barrett and centre Jakob Poeltl."They make my life a lot easier. Getting the ball to Jak in that kind of half circle area, it's an automatic assist. Just gotta figure out how to get it to him.
"Obviously everybody kind of goes through that process, you've got to get adjusted to a bunch of things, but I think he managed to do it very quickly and has made steps forward that I don't know that I've seen a lot of rookies make."Barnes is questionable after he aggravated a finger sprain in Monday's win.
