TORONTO — Toronto Raptors All-Star forward Brandon Ingram is considered doubtful to play through an injury in Game 6 against the Cavaliers on Wednesday, May 1, at Scotiabank Arena.

The Raptors initially listed Ingram as questionable to face the Cavs in Game 6 because of right heel inflammation, which caused him to sit out the second half of Game 5 as Cleveland won at home to take a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven first-round NBA playoff series.

But on the morning of May 1, the Raptors downgraded Ingram's status to doubtful for Game 6. Tipoff is scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Cavaliers news: Evan Mobley, Jarrett Allen come through for Cavs in Game 5 win

The Raptors did not list All-Star forward Scottie Barnes on their injury report for Game 6, even though he suffered a right quadriceps injury in Game 5 in Cleveland.

Raptors starting point guard Immanuel Quickley (right hamstring strain) has not appeared in the postseason. On April 24, Toronto ruled out Quickley for the remainder of the first round.

The Cavs did not include any players on their injury report for Game 6, even though shooting guard Sam Merrill (right hand/finger) and center Jarrett Allen (right knee tendonitis) have been playing hurt throughout the series.
