In this year's NBA Draft, the Toronto Raptors selected interior player Ulrich Chomche from Cameroon with the 57th pick in the second round. Shaumshee is the youngest player to be selected in this year's NBA Draft, and he is considered to have a lot of talent and potential, and he is a young player with a lot of room for development.
Previously, Shaumsey also represented the Raptors in the NBA Summer League, where he played a total of 5 games for the team, averaging 19.3 minutes per game, averaging 4.8 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.2 steals, 1.4 blocks, 2.2 turnovers and 4.8 fouls, shooting 50% from the field, 50% from three-point range, and 44.4% from the free throw line. Shaumshee's performance in Summer League was mediocre, he didn't show enough scoring ability, his technique looked very rough, he played entirely on his physical gifts, his turnover was high, and he was constantly fouled on the defensive end. Shaumshee has fully demonstrated his shortcomings in maturity, and his performance is indeed a certain gap with everyone's expectations.
Shomshe was born in December 2005 and is now only 18 years old. According to the data of the previous joint trial physical test, Shaumshe's bare foot height is 208.9cm, the arm span is 223.5cm, the standing touch height is 276.9cm, and the weight is 105.4kg. Shaumshee undoubtedly has a very good physical talent, and although his height is average, his arm span can be said to be excellent. However, his athleticism is not as good as it gets, and his movement seems to be very slow, which may be a big factor in his draft decline. He was once thought to have a chance to make a first-round sign, but he wasn't drafted until the end of the second round, which shows that his performance in the tryout before the draft was not ideal.
At least judging from the situation in these summer league games, Shaumshee's maturity is indeed very limited, and it may be difficult for him to have a chance to attack the Raptors' rotation in a short period of time, and he can basically only add chaos to the team on the court. For the Raptors, after all, this second-round pick is not very high, and this is another draft year, if Shaumsey can slowly grow in the team and improve his skills and abilities in the next one to two years, he may still have a chance to become a qualified NBA player in a few years. For the Raptors, they are all regarded as an investment, and if they lose, they will not lose, and if they win, they can at least make a small profit.
