In trading for Ingram, the Raptors are walking on the edge of a knife.
Briefly

The Toronto Raptors' strategy for the 2024-25 season involved losing games to develop younger players, with the aim of acquiring talent in the offseason. While the plan initially appeared to be on track with many losses contributing to future potential, instability in management decisions—like trading Pascal Siakam and then acquiring Brandon Ingram—has created confusion regarding their direction. Ingram, a consistent scorer with significant mid-range shooting abilities, presents challenges in offensive efficiency, echoing the strengths and weaknesses of current player Scottie Barnes, indicating a lack of clear identity moving forward.
The Toronto Raptors' 2024-25 plan struggled with inconsistent execution, leading to the trade for Brandon Ingram, challenging the clarity of their rebuild strategy.
Though the Raptors intended to lose to develop players, the inconsistency in direction from management raised questions about the effectiveness of the rebuild.
