Toronto All-Star Brandon Ingram underwent heel surgery after an injury there slowed him in the postseason, the Raptors announced.
From the press release:
_Ingram underwent surgery to address his ongoing right heel pain. A heel spur was removed by Dr. Martin O’Malley at New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery. Ingram is expected to fully recover and be ready for training camp in September._
Ingram led the Raptors last season, averaging 21.5 points per game, adding 5.6 rebounds a night. He played in 77 regular-season games. However, in part due to injuries and in part the Cavaliers’ defense, Ingram struggled in the playoffs. He had a great game in the Raptors’ Game 4 win, scoring 23, but played in just five of the seven games in that series and averaged 12 points a night on 32.8% shooting.
Ingram is expected back with the Raptors next season, he has two years and $81.9 million remaining on his contract.
