Toronto Raptors rookie Ulrich Chomche's first season in the NBA came to an abrupt end due to a torn right knee ligament sustained during a G League game. The 19-year-old, who made history as the first player from the NBA's Africa Academy to be drafted, had shown promise with the Raptors 905, averaging 7.1 points and 7.6 rebounds in 33 games. He also made seven appearances with the Raptors, contributing valuable minutes to the team's rotation.

Chomche's rehabilitation will now focus on preparing for the NBA Summer League, where he hopes to make a strong comeback. Despite the setback, his performance in the G League reflects a bright future ahead, particularly given his young age and the unique journey that brought him to this point.
