Toronto Raptors forward Brandon Ingram will be available to play in Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic, despite dealing with right-heel inflammation that limited his production in the team's previous game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Why it matters

Ingram is a key offensive contributor for the Raptors, and his availability is crucial as the team looks to secure a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. His ability to score efficiently and facilitate the offense will be important against an Orlando squad that has been competitive this season.

The details

Ingram had a subpar 13-point performance in Friday's win over the Pelicans due to the heel issue, but he has been cleared to play against the Magic. In two prior meetings with Orlando this season, the 28-year-old forward has averaged 26.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.0 blocks and 0.5 steals while shooting 44.4 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from 3-point range.

  • Ingram will play in Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic.
  • In the Raptors' previous game on Friday, Ingram had 13 points against the New Orleans Pelicans.
