Brandon Ingram, the Toronto Raptors' star player, will not be taking part in Game 7 against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Ingram is dealing with right heel inflammation, which has forced him to sit out the last two games. He first sat out in the second half of Game 5 and then didn't play in Game 6, which the Raptors won without him to force Game 7. Ingram led the Raptors in scoring during the regular season at 21.5 points per game, although he was struggling so far in the playoffs. Without Ingram in the overtime Game 6, Ja'Kobe Walter surprised with 24 points. The Raptors also remain without Immanuel Quickley, who has yet to play in the postseason with a right hamstring strain. Ingram will hope his teammates can win to get him back in action in these playoffs. The Raptors are trying to break the series trend, as the home team has won every game so far. If Toronto wants to advance, it'll have to change that, and it'll have to happen without Ingram. The Raptors will be playing on the road, and shorthanded, which will make their task even more challenging. Ingram's absence will be a significant blow to the Raptors, as he is a key player for the team. His teammates will have to step up and fill the void left by his absence. The Raptors will have to rely on their bench players to provide the necessary support and scoring to win the game. The game will be a tough one for the Raptors, but they will have to give it their all to win. The Raptors will have to play with heart and determination to overcome the challenges they will face. The game will be a test of their character and their will to win. The Raptors will have to dig deep and find the strength to win the game. The game will be a battle, but the Raptors will have to come out on top to advance in the playoffs.
