Jalen Harris is coming off a record-setting performance in the CEBL.
The former Toronto Raptors guard set the CEBL single-game scoring record on June 12 when he scored 45 points in a 104-93 Saskatchewan Rattlers win over the Brampton Honey Badgers.
To conclude his epic night, Harris hit the game-winning three as the Rattlers were the first team to hit the target score of 104:

Overall, Harris shot 17-for-27 from the field and made six three-pointers.
The 25-year-old was drafted by the Raptors in the second round (59th overall) of the 2020 NBA Draft. Harris appeared in 13 games for Toronto in the 2020-21 season and averaged 7.4 points and 1.3 assists per game. The highlight for him was when he scored 31 points against the Dallas Mavericks in the final game of his rookie season.
Harris looked like a promising young prospect for Toronto during his rookie year. However, he was then suspended from the NBA for his sophomore season for violating the league’s anti-drug policy. Toronto then moved on from him.
The 6-foot-5 guard played for the G-league affiliates of the New York Knicks and Chicago Bulls before heading to the CEBL.
Harris looks to continue to leave his mark in the CEBL after a short NBA run.
