"Ingram hasn't been short of clutch plays so far in his young Raptors career, as he had a game-saving block against tonight's opponent, the Charlotte Hornets, a while ago, plus the game-winner against the Indiana Pacers during Toronto's season-high nine-game win streak. He was just milliseconds away from yet another famous moment, but the ball left his fingertips just a bit late. Still a great play as he banks a tough fading shot from a beautiful Scottie Barnes outlet pass. This could've been an all-time Raptors play, but it just wasn't meant to be on New Year's Eve."
"To start our list, we have Sandro Mamukelashvili, who continues to make the Raptors front office look like geniuses for signing him to a steal of a 2 year $5.5 million contract. He shows off his moves in this play after receiving a pass from Jamal Shead, hits a nice spin move on Onyeka Okongwu and then kicks it out to the perimeter for a Jamal Shead catch and shoot three that hits nothing but net. This possession was all Mamu and Shead as they delivered a big bucket for the Raptors. Okongwu, if you don't know, now you know the name of Mamu."
"Honestly, this play doesn't look like much, but it's another nice two-man action this time involving Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram. Scottie shows off his elite playmaking skills as he fits a nasty bounce pass into a really tight window to set up a corner sitting Brandon Ingram for another three that hits nothing but net. Both of them were great again against the Nuggets as Ingram had a game-high 30 points, 8 rebounds and 5 made threes for Toronto and Scottie Barnes had yet another monstrous triple-doubl"
Toronto Raptors had a shorter week with two games against the Atlanta Hawks and one against the Denver Nuggets. Brandon Ingram produced multiple clutch moments this season, including a near-miss on a last-second shot after a Scottie Barnes outlet pass. Sandro Mamukelashvili and Jamal Shead executed an effective two-man sequence capped by a Shead catch-and-shoot three. Scottie Barnes displayed advanced playmaking by threading a precise bounce pass to Brandon Ingram for an open corner three. Ingram scored 30 points with eight rebounds and five made threes in the game against Denver.
