Raptors\u2019 Brandon Ingram receives NBA All-Star Game honors in place of Stephen Curry<\/a> appeared first on ClutchPoints<\/a>. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Toronto Raptors<\/a>\u2019 Brandon Ingram<\/a> has found his way into the All-Star game, and it comes at the expense<\/a> of Stephen Curry, who picked up a right knee issue on January 30. Ingram, 28, has had more than the ideal start to life at the Raptors, averaging 22 points, 5.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game.<\/p>\n

The selection gives the 28-year-old his second All-Star nod, the first coming in 2020, and adds him to a Toronto contingent that already includes Scottie Barnes and head coach Darko Rajakovi\u0107. Curry\u2019s absence stems from a lingering right knee issue<\/a> that has forced him to miss multiple games and ultimately withdraw from what would have been his 12th All-Star appearance.<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old guard exited a January 30 loss to the Detroit Pistons with knee soreness, and the Warriors have since opted for a cautious approach. Golden State\u2019s medical timeline is uncertain, but the organization hopes he will be ready for its first post-break game.<\/p>\n

Regardless, the news comes as a major boost for Ingram, who some thought deserved a look-in right from the start. The Raptors have won three of their last four games and are currently 5th in the Eastern Conference with a 32-22 record.<\/p>\n

Ingram has been the main foil alongside a quartet of scorers that the Raptors have. Scottie Barnes, who has produced 19.4 points, 8.4 rebounds and 5.6 assists, already earned his All-Star cap. Both Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett also average close to 20 points per game. The Raptors have been hugely successful as a unit and Ingram\u2019s arrival has turned them into a team capable of scoring in volume against any team in the NBA.<\/p>\n

The call-up coming at the expense of Curry is certainly going to irk Warriors fans, who would have wanted to see their talisman play the 12th All-Star game of his career. The four-time champion remains integral to the Warriors\u2019 chances of emerging as postseason contenders and will be itching to return to full fitness.<\/p>\n
