"Barrett's game in Toronto has slowly risen from the earth, shaken off the dirt, and started changing before our very eyes. He is a living zombie - the good kind (is there a good kind?!) - a man who has outrun the conversation surrounding him, outrun the chains of expectations, outrun the assumptions tethered to his every footstep on the court."
"The Raptors recently got RJ Barrett back after a one-month-plus absence."
RJ Barrett returned to the Raptors after a one-month-plus absence. His game in Toronto has slowly risen, shaken off the dirt, and visibly changed. He exhibits relentlessness and an almost unstoppable presence, described as a "living zombie — the good kind." He has moved beyond surrounding conversation, escaped chains of expectations, and left assumptions behind with every footstep on the court. Barrett's renewed form supplies the Raptors with scoring, energy, and confidence that can materially influence team performance and outcomes moving forward.
