Poeltl's Limited Minutes Haunt Raptors in Game 2 Defeat
21 Apr
Summary
- Poeltl played only nine minutes due to limited availability.
- Brandon Ingram scored seven points on 36 minutes of play.
- Shead contributed three points after scoring 17 in Game 1.
The Toronto Raptors dropped Game 2 against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a 115-110 score, highlighting several player performance issues.
Jakob Poeltl's limited availability was a major concern, as he logged just nine minutes. His absence forced the Raptors into smaller rotations against the Cavaliers' strong frontcourt.
Brandon Ingram struggled significantly, scoring only seven points in 36 minutes. For the Raptors to compete, Ingram needs to improve his scoring efficiency and ball security.
Jamal Shead, despite defensive energy, also saw his offensive production drop. He scored three points after a 17-point performance in Game 1, needing more offensive impact to support the team.
