Joel Bosh, 22, has just concluded a four-year collegiate career at Alabama State University. The undrafted forward averaged 6.6 points on 39.4 per cent shooting with 4.4 rebounds per game for the Hornets.
Current Raptors forward Joey Graham will make his second summer-league appearance with the team. The product of Oklahoma State University was selected 16th overall by the Raptors in the first round of the 2005 draft. Last season, Graham averaged 3.6 points and 1.8 rebounds in just under nine minutes per game for Toronto.
Swingman Hassan Adams, who reportedly has signed a one-year deal with Toronto for the league minimum, will also play on the summer league team. Adams was drafted 54th overall by New Jersey in the 2006 draft and played in 61 games as a rookie before being cut by the Nets last July.
Rounding out Toronto's summer league squad are centre Deji Akindele, forwards Sean Banks, Rod Benson, C.J. Giles and Coleman Collins along with guards Daniel Ewing, Thomas Gardner and John Lucas III.
The team will play five games, beginning July 12, against the Sacramento Kings. All games will be played at the Thomas & Mack Center and Cox Pavilion in Las Vegas.
