It was the largest margin of victory from any team at Summer League this year. Toronto overwhelmed Chicago with its defence, forcing a record 33 turnovers and using a 27-9 second quarter to carve out the 44-point victory. Chicago ended up shooting 30.9 per cent from the field and 26.9 per cent from beyond the arc.<\/p>\n<p>Brampton, Ont. native A.J. Lawson led the way, scoring 22 points off the bench on 7-of-15 shooting, while this year&#8217;s No. 39 pick Alijah Martin chipped in 16 points, five rebounds, five assists and two steals, and finished a game-high plus-36.<\/p>\n<p>Now, the Raptors get to add Murray-Boyles to that mix, a player who enters the league after making a name for himself at South Carolina with his defensive-minded game. Murray-Boyles was no slouch on offence as a Gamecock forward either. As a sophomore, he averaged 16.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.3 blocks while finishing with an SEC-leading 58.6 field-goal percentage and 59.9 effective field-goal percentage.<\/p>\n<p>He&#8217;ll now look to help the Raptors improve to 2-0 at Summer League against a Magic team that enters the contest with a 0-1 record following their loss to the Sacramento Kings on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>Catch the action between Toronto and Orlando at 6 p.m. ET \/ 3 p.m. PT on Sportsnet 360 or Sportsnet+.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Get ready, Toronto Raptors fans, Collin Murray-Boyles will make his Summer League debut on Sunday as the 20-year-old&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7703,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[64],"tags":[355,99],"class_list":["post-7702","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nba","tag-nba","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7702","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=7702"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7702\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7703"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7702"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=7702"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7702"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
