Graves shines as Raptors beat Heat at Summer League

Graves did a little bit of everything on Thursday as the Raptors defeated the Miami Heat 99-90 in Summer League action in Las Vegas.

The Santa Clara product finished with a team-high 23 points on 8-of-16 shooting from the field and was an impressive 4-of-6 from three-point range.

He also chipped in six rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal with zero turnovers to help the Raptors hold off a second-half charge from the Heat.

“This game I just tried to be more aggressive with the ball in my hands and it worked out tonight,” Graves said in a post-game interview with ESPN.

Graves, 19, was selected by the Raptors with the 19th-overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.

It wasn’t the best night from Toronto’s second-round pick in this year’s draft, as guard Jaden Bradley finished with just four points and had four turnovers over his 27 minutes of action.

Seth Lundy finished with 19 points for the Raptors in the win, while recently signed Nate Bittle continued his impressive showing in Las Vegas with 13 points and seven rebounds.

Despite the win improving the Raptors to 3-1 in Summer League, it wasn’t enough for them to make the semifinals as their point differential will keep them out of the top four in the standings.
