Raptors' Brandon Ingram out for Game 6 against Cavaliers with sore right heel
TORONTO (AP) --- Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram was sidelined Friday
night for Game 6 of the Eastern Conference first-round playoff series against
the Cleveland Cavaliers because of a sore right heel, coach Darko Rajakovic
said.
The two-time All-Star left midway through the second quarter of Toronto's
125-120 loss at Cleveland on Wednesday night. He scored one point in 11 minutes
before departing.
Guard Jamal Shead started in Ingram's place in Game 6.
The Raptors are already without guard Immanuel Quickley, who has missed the
entire series because of sore right hamstring.
After averaging 21.5 points per game in the regular season, his first with
Toronto, Ingram has struggled in the playoffs, averaging 12 in the five games
against the Cavaliers. He's shooting 19 for 58 overall and 5 for 13 from
3-point range.
Cleveland leads the series 3-2 and can advance with a win Friday. The home team
has won each of the five games in the series.
