Toronto accepted Denver Nuggets in Vancouver to start the exhibition season after holding a training camp in Kalgary. In Albert Ingrem was the center of attention after such a long dismissal, with his movements the most carefully watched during the fighting of the open practice of the team.

Ingram left 27 games when Raptors traded at him in early February and missed the rest of the campaign from his severe ankle injury.

But he has a pure health score and, as expected, will lead to the fact that the team scores as the first option and the easiest running.

As R.J. Barrett, the best scorer is each of the last two seasons: “You add Brandon Ingram to the mix, he changes everything.”

Here's how:

-Ingram instantly becomes one of the most smooth scorers who once came to trial for predators. In his game there is a little deemar of the gay and ore of gay (mid -class skill), a little Vince Carter in the ability of Ingrem to disappear for open jumpers and the touch of Fred Vanvlit on its scale (although Vanvlit accepted much more than three signs than the tendency of Gameam to take two points of the version of these snow).

He was the best option at the expense of almost every team in which he was since childhood (although CJ McCollum and Zion Williamson and several Lakers could think differently), only giving way to the NBA when Lebron James went to Los -Angels for the first time.

Even then, and throughout his career, Ingrem was able to adapt and show that he could well distribute the ball and do not mind mixing his attack.

From an early age, Ingram was taught by one of his mentors, a former NBA player and a disposable Raptors officer Jerry Stekhaus, be a team playerField

-The gravity, which he will provide to other predators, attracting so much attention of the defenders, Ingram can also benefit when the ball returns to it. His percentage of shooting over the past two years over the past two years has been almost identical to high -octane offensive engines, such as Luke Donchich, Tray Young, Devin Buker, De'aaron Fox and Jamal Murray.

-Ingram also provides a desperately necessary threat to driving for the Toronto crime. It consistently occupies the first place in the upper echelon in points from the disks (including 11th place in 2022-23) and reaches up to 50% of his attempts on the discs, which should expand the possibilities for the Darko Radzhakovich team.

Last year's Raptors shot at 44.4% on discs, the 29th of 30 teams (the New Orlean was the 28th and would be worse than that of predators if you took 18 games that Ingram provided 53% on disks).

Barrett also drove a ton for “predators”, but did not finish at the elite level as Ingram does. Back in 2022-23, it also took place for Pascal Siakam. In 2021-22, one could say that for Vanvlit (although this year he drove the Siakam much better in driving, shooting more, like Ingrem traditionally.

-Kotti Barnes noted from the off -season work with Ingrem, he saw another opportunity This will appear from Ingram driving – open pictures for everyone else.

“He can make any hard shot that is possible. And he was more likely to want passers -by, where he could go to the rim or go to his places and be able to create for others, ”Barnes said.

“He is phenomenal. He can do so many things on the floor. He will help us a lot this year. He will require so much attention. “

–Ingrem also gives the team another option, which can go out, launch and conduct a crime (similarly to how Siakam used), which should help playing the QUICLYY IMNUELA to approach 10 attempts by a three -point game, which allowing QUICLYY to focus on clogging.

-Big with the fact that since Kavkhi Leonard, Ingrem “The first player who has a hatch”, who is a proven scorer at the level of the first level of playoffs. He undermined the sun in 2022, scoring an average of 27 points, 6.2 programs and shooting 41% at three -point indicators in severe loss of the series from the contender for the title.

Yes, two years later it was much more complicated, but Ingrem ran into the Oklahom -City team a year later from Roughshod’s running in the entire league, which presented some of the best defenders on the planet (including the primary defender Lu Dort, the threat of Montreal, which strangled Ingrem) to fight the game.

-In, you may not see Ingram every night, and if so, his teammates will have to rise. We are not saying that this is the situation of “loading the load” of Leonard in the process of creation, but, given the long history of Ingram injuries and an unpleasant disease from which he just returned, the “predators” will consider their options.

“Let's see how the pre-season period will pass,” said the general director of Bobby Webster about the use of INGRAM. “We will see how he reacts to the game for 32 minutes at night, 35 minutes on the night, so perhaps the jury there (with some load control). But no, no current plans on Brandon (receiving the complete treatment of Kauha). ”

Webster talked about when real games begin, of course. Fans in Vancouver will gladly agree for a few minutes of INGRAM, and you must think in so many months from the game that he loves, Ingram will also be.
