Ingram, Barrett and Barnes come through in the clutch

"In the fourth quarter, he threw a pass down to Immanuel Quickley, who then threw it right into RJ Barrett's hands in the right corner pocket. Splash. Barrett screamed into the Scotiabank Arena crowd that he grew up being a part of. Last night, the Raptors went 5-8 from this coveted area. It was Barrett's only made 3 of the game, but he gave his team their first lead since the start of the second quarter."

"Barnes, who had been fighting an illness all game, hobbled back like Willis Reed and had the defensive play of the night. A massive come-from-behind block on Jalen Green, the Suns' leading scorer with 34 points (Booker had 31). Green wilted on the baseline, and the 5-on-4 Raptors' advantage resulted in Barrett dunking the ball."

"Brandon Ingram put up video game numbers: 36 points on 13-20 shooting, 5-6 from downtown. Ingram tied the game with Glorilla watching from the stands. Ja'Kobe Walter, who had already made two 3s already, decided to feed the hot-hand instead of hoisting a 3 himself. He passed the ball to Barrett, and the latter rewarded the decision by making a beautiful floater after a spin cycle."

Brandon Ingram delivered an outstanding performance with 36 points on 13-20 shooting and 5-6 from three-point range.

The Suns' Jalen Green led his team with 34 points while Devin Booker added 31, but Toronto's execution down the stretch proved decisive.
