Raptors frustrated with lack of foul calls for Brandon Ingram in loss to Cavs: ‘It’s very interesting’
CLEVELAND — The Cleveland Cavaliers grinded out a sometimes ugly 115-105 win over the Toronto Raptors in Game 2 to take a 2-0 series lead . Much of that success was due to their defense and how they shut down forward Brandon Ingram, thanks in part to the services of Dean Wade. Toronto’s leading scorer was held to just seven points on 3-15 shooting.
Afterward, Raptors head coach Darko Rajaković acknowledged that he liked Ingram’s aggressiveness and that they need him to keep shooting if they’re going to get back into the series. “I got absolute support for him. He’s going to make his shots.

“They’re very prideful of their physicality, and their whole team was very, very physical with Brandon. So far me, it’s very interesting that he had zero free throws in this game. That’s kind of like, very interesting.
