Gradey Dick Has Impressive Showing In Rising Stars Game

Dick was the reason why Team T stayed in the game. Unfortunately, Team T didn’t have enough as they lost to Team C 40-34 in the semifinal.

After missing out on the Rising Stars Game last year, Dick made his presence felt at this year’s event. He scored the first bucket for his team off a nice up and under layup.

Dick had another nice finish inside, laying it up around Canadian Zach Edey. Dick then cashed in on a triple from Anthony Black that was nothing but net. He hit another three off a screen from Alex Sarr. Dick was on the money in this game only missing two shots.

His performance caught the attention of Raptors legend Vince Carer and 3-time WNBA champion Candace Parker who were on the broadcast call with Adam Lefkoe.

This was a great experience for Dick who is the lone representative for the Raptors at All-Star Weekend in San Francisco.

Team C went on to defeat Team G League in the final 25-14, as they punch their ticket to the 74th NBA All-Star Game on Feb. 14.
