Lorenzo Brown may have split time between the Toronto Raptors and the Raptors905 but he’s made an impression on the G League regardless of how long he’s played there. The 27-year-old guard, on a two-way contract with the Raptors and their minor league affiliate, was the only 905 player named to the G League mid-season all-star team on Friday. But he hasn’t hurt the Raptors when he’s been called on to play when injuries have knocked another point guard out of games. “He’s done an excellent job with the 905 team, he’s done a good job of bouncing back and forth, he’s a true professional.”Article Continued BelowNo one else from the 905 roster made the mid-season all-star team, a group honoured in theory alone since the G League all-star game as part of the NBA’s all-star weekend will not be held this season. Montreal’s Khem Birch, who has averaged 13.8 points and 9.9 rebounds with the Lakeland Magic, the G League affiliate of the Orlando Magic, joins Brown on the Eastern Conference all-star team.
