"From the start of the game, he made mince meat out of Zaccharie Risacher and last year's DPOY candidate Dyson Daniels. He bumped Risacher and scored on him, and hit a fadeaway over Daniels. When that didn't work, he drew a foul from him and hit his free throws. A 8-0 Raptors' run, punctuated by back-to-back dunks by BI and Barnes forced Darko's good friend Quin Snyder to take a timeout."
"BI's barrage of middys may have inspired Barnes - who had 20 points - as the latter came out of halftime with a nice bump on Onyeka Okongwu before hitting a shot over him. All of Scottie's field goals came inside the paint.BI scored at all three levels in the third quarter, knocking down his first 3 of the game. He hit a tough baseline mid-range jumper over Risacher, and glided through the Scotaibank floor gracefully,"
Brandon Ingram scored efficiently, going 11-for-15 (73%) with seven mid-range baskets and attacking multiple defenders. He exploited matchups against Zaccharie Risacher and Dyson Daniels, scoring through contact, hitting fadeaways, drawing fouls, and converting free throws. An 8-0 Raptors run included back-to-back dunks by Ingram and Barnes and forced a Quin Snyder timeout. Ingram used pump fakes and mid-range fadeaways to create easy looks. His play seemed to energize Barnes, who finished with 20 points, while Scottie scored exclusively inside the paint. Ingram scored at all three levels in the third quarter but committed a turnover in the fourth.
