As the Toronto Raptors continue to progress in their season, they are growing more comfortable with one another.
The big task this season stemmed around newcomer Brandon Ingram, who was acquired in February in a trade with the New Orleans Pelicans. Ingram plays a similar position to that of RJ Barrett, but the two are learning more about how to coexist.
“I thought (Barrett) was just a gunner,” Ingram said via Sportsnet reporter Michael Grange. “I thought he just shot the ball a lot. But watching his game and seeing him work … I’ve seen what he works on, and how it transfers to the game.
“And he’s steady, you know, scoring the basketball, on the defensive side, he’s aggressive. He’s a guy who doesn’t complain about not having a basketball. It just kind of attracts to him. He’s been showing me a lot.”
