Rockets FALL To Hot-Shooting Raptors | Bruce Thornton Showcases PROMISING Shooting & Playmaking

Rockets FALL To Hot-Shooting Raptors | Bruce Thornton Showcases PROMISING Shooting & Playmaking Houston Rockets stumble as Bruce Thornton has a solid game, but Raptors’ hot shooting proves too much in NBA Summer League Game 2. Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) breaks down the Rockets' 102–89 loss to the Toronto Raptors, spotlighting Bruce Thornton’s gritty 17-point, 6-rebound, 6-assist, 5-steal performance, and the impact of Seth Lundy’s lights-out three-point barrage. Key highlights include Quadir Copeland’s perimeter defense, Tristan Newton’s flashes as a creator, and concerns over the offensive lulls without Thornton on the floor. The show also features insights from GM Rafael Stone on Marcus Smart’s fit, Reed Sheppard’s physical transformation, and Houston’s commitment to a defense-first identity. Will the Rockets’ promising young talent overcome their growing pains and deliver on-court results this season? #Rockets #NBA #SummerLeague 📺 Subscribe On YouTube:    / lockedonrockets   📲 Twitter:   / jtgatlin   &   / lockedonrockets   📲 Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/jtgatlin.bsk... 🎧 Follow/Subscribe/Listen: Locked On Rockets Anywhere: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnRockets Locked On NBA Anywhere: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBA For your next listen, check out the Locked On NBA podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.
