  Rotowire Dec 14, 2024

  The Raptors assigned Shead to the G League's Raptors 905 on Friday. Shead tallied five points (2-5 FG, 1-1 3Pt), one assist and one steal in 14 minutes during Toronto's most recent outing before being assigned to the G League. However, the rookie guard has been a consistent member of the NBA club's rotation, so he will likely only be with the Raptors 905 for a short period.

  Shead (wrist) has returned to Monday's game against Indiana, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Shead's stay in the locker room didn't last long, as he was spotted on the bench with tape on his wrist at the end of the third quarter before checking in for the start of the fourth. It'll be worth keeping an eye on the team's injury report following Monday's game to see if his wrist issue lingers.

• Raptors' Jamal Shead: Heading to Toronto

  Rotowire Jun 27, 2024

  Shead was selected by the Kings with the No. 45 overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. He was then traded to the Raptors along with Davion Mitchell, Sasha Vezenkov and a 2025 second-round pick in exchange for Jaden McDaniels, according to Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca. Shead played four collegiate seasons at Houston and was especially solid as a playmaker during the 2023-24 campaign, averaging 12.9 points, 6.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds in 31.1 minutes per game. The six-foot guard is touted as an excellent on-ball defender but isn't particularly reliable from beyond the arc. If he can develop his shot a bit more at the professional level, Shead could carve out a decent career as a backup point guard.
