It appears increasingly likely that the Toronto Raptors will be without their regular-season leading scorer for Game 7 against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Brandon Ingram, who is listed as questionable for the series-deciding contest, was spotted in a walking boot at Raptors shootaround in Cleveland on Sunday morning, Sportsnet’s Michael Grange reported.
Ingram was ruled out for the Raptors’ thrilling Game 6 win on Friday due to right heel inflammation. He was also spotted in a walking boot after the game.
The star forward reaggravated the injury in the second quarter of Wednesday’s Game 5 road loss.
Ingram has averaged 12 points in the series and had a 23-point performance in Toronto’s Game 4 victory Sunday. Ingram was 0-for-2 from the field and had one point, one rebound, and two assists in 11 minutes on Wednesday before departing.
With Ingram out in Game 6, Ja’Kobe Walter saw an increase in minutes and stepped up in a major way.
The 21-year-old Walter scored 24 points on 4-of-9 shooting from three in 43 minutes, and helped the Raptors keep their season alive with a 112-110 win in overtime.
The series shifts back to Cleveland for Game 7 on Sunday (Sportsnet ONE and Sportsnet+, 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT).
