The team is headed to Cleveland for a first round match-up versus the fourth seed Cavaliers, which is set to begin at 1 p.m. on Saturday, April 18.
Cleveland is heavily favoured to win the series, but the Raptors did sweep the season series against them. But, a lot has changed since November when the two Eastern Conference foes last clashed, most importantly the addition of future Hall of Fame guard James Harden.
Ingram shared Player of the Week honours with LeBron James of the Los Angeles Lakers.
