My Player of the Game: Brandon Ingram
Takeaways
- Brandon Ingram was cookin' against the Raptors. He made five three-pointers in a row on five straight possessions.
- Ingram became the fourth player in New Orleans franchise history to shoot 75% or better o n 20+ field goal attempts.
- While this was an incredible offensive game from nearly everyone, the game inside the game was listening to Joel Meyers and Antonio Daniels make obvious inuendoes about Raptors player Gradey Dick. ;)
- Zion played with a lot of force this game, and it was great to see.
- CJ McCollum was also reigning three pointers.
- Grand Theft Alvarado made an appearance.
It was a fun win. Much needed.
