"We're back for the second week of the brand new series of Top Ten Raptors Plays of the Week. Let's get into it, as this week's games covered five matchups that went from the Trail Blazers game last Tuesday to obviously last night's showdown against the New York Knicks."
"CMB's play starts on the defensive end as he does a good job of keeping up with Jake LaRavia before swatting a shot attempt at the rim. It leads to a Battle rebound, which is quickly pitched to Barnes, and he hits CMB on the break, who is running down with a full head of steam. An important play for the rookie, as he had a good outing against the Lakers and has recently shown more willingness to run the fast break."
"Barnes was phenomenal this week and really good in this Portland game, too. This week could've been a straight Scottie Barnes top 10 plays of the week with how good he's been, but we decided to go for versatility instead. Barnes blows by Murray with relative ease before dunking over Donovan Clingan."
The Top Ten Raptors Plays covers five matchups from the Trail Blazers game to the New York Knicks showdown. Highlights include finishing plays, defensive stops that spark transition offense, and emphatic dunks. Ingram opens with an old-fashioned three-point play in transition, beating Jordan Clarkson and finishing over OG Anunoby. CMB converts a defensive block into a Battle rebound and a Barnes-to-CMB fast-break finish. Ja'Kobe Walter records an and-one on LeBron James while starting in place of RJ Barrett. Scottie Barnes powers past opponents for a dunk over Donovan Clingan, and Mamu posters Derrick White in garbage time.
