The Toronto Raptors' summer league performance brought a mix of expectations and disappointments as some key players were notably absent. A.J. Lawson, a standout in earlier games, missed the semi-final due to an adductor injury, raising questions about his impact on the team's performance. Meanwhile, Chris Boucher remains a free agent with little interest, suggesting a potential exit from Toronto. The future of players like Jamal Shead and Davion Mitchell is also under scrutiny, with Shead's turnovers causing concern but being deemed a learning experience. Trade discussions loom as the Raptors weigh their roster options and potential additions from other teams' summer league participants.
