In a valiant effort during Saturday’s Game 1 loss against the Cavaliers, Jamal Shead stepped up in the absence of Immanuel Quickley, scoring 17 points and contributing five three-pointers. As Quickley continues to recover from a hamstring injury with a potential return later in the series, Shead’s performance provided a much-needed boost to the Raptors, demonstrating his capability in the starting lineup.
