"Ingram hasn't radically altered his game or reached new heights of efficiency. In fact, he's down across the board in terms of shot making, efficiency and creation with the Raptors. By the numbers, it's probably his worst playmaking season in 5 years. What he has done though, is slide right back into a winning situation and one that he has a large part in motivating."
""What I've seen with him is, this is work ethic. He comes in every day. He comes in early, you know? He works on his stuff. So, he's a true professional. Besides his size and length and shot making and stuff like that - besides that, I can see why he's been as good as he is." - RJ Barrett on Ingram earlier this season The offensive approach in this game was a pretty good example of why some of Ingram's numbers are down."
The Raptors lost a winnable game after being outscored 20-8 in the final eight minutes, including overtime. James Harden dominated the opposing end. Brandon Ingram's shooting, efficiency and creation are down, and his playmaking appears to be the weakest in five years by the numbers. Ingram has returned to a winning situation and provides motivational leadership while remaining notably healthy. Teammates praised his work ethic and professionalism. The Raptors' offense ran less pick-and-roll and distributed usage more evenly, producing seven players with double-digit scoring and notable contributions from Gradey Dick, Jamal Shead and Ochai Agbaji.
