In the recent game, the Toronto Raptors showcased a rare blowout victory against the Orlando Magic, allowing for an opportunity to give their regular players some rest. This led to a significant moment for rookie Ulrich Chomche, who, at just 19 years old, is making strides in his development. Despite limited playtime in the NBA, Chomche demonstrated his potential by contributing effectively in the closing moments of the game, including making a clever assist and earning free throws.

Coach Darko Rajakovic expressed optimism regarding Chomche's growth, noting that he's adapting to the league's demands and improving physically. The Raptors are focused on balancing his playing time with the need for continued development, making sure not to rush his ascent. Unlike some of his fellow rookies, Chomche has primarily been playing with the G League Raptors 905, where he has shown impressive stats, including notable performances with multiple blocks.
