Scottie Barnes, in his fifth season with the Raptors, is showing steady improvement, especially in pick-and-roll scenarios. Head coach Darko Rajaković praised his enhanced skills in handling the ball and playmaking. Barnes's size and ability to attack the rim make him a challenging matchup for opponents. Recent games highlight his effectiveness, including a double-double performance against the Pelicans and a strong showing against the Magic, where he contributed significantly to the team's success through ball-handling and fastbreak plays.
""What he really improved is his pick-and-roll game, that now he's able to do a really good job of not just setting and rolling but also doing a really good job of handling the ball, playmaking, scoring out of those positions as well.""
""Putting the ball into Barnes's hands has been a recipe for success lately. He recorded a double-double with 23 points and 12 assists, and the Raptors secured a much-needed win.""
""Barnes still took on a lot of the ball-handling and playmaking responsibilities and put together another outstanding performance. He finished the game with 23 points, 5 rebounds, 15 assists, and 3 steals.""
