Toronto Raptors second-round pick Jamal Shead received a vote for the rookie most likely to be a steal from the NBA draft
At least one NBA executive seems to be pretty high on Toronto Raptors second-round pick Jamal Shead ahead of his rookie season.
Bub Carrington of the Washington Wizards received the most votes with five to be the most likely draft steal. The point guard out of Pittsburgh was selected 14th overall late last month. Shead appeared in five Summer League games for Toronto, averaging 8.2 points, 3.8 assists, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.2 steals while shooting 42.1% from the floor and 27.3% from three-point range. He looked like a tenacious on-ball defender whose offense is going to need to develop to make an impact at the next level.
