Cutoff/status: 2026-07-18; official roster lists Ingram, while the reported deal would send him and Gradey Dick to the Clippers. Toronto said it will wait for the NBA investigation, which has no timetable. Official NBA profile · NBA/AP trade hold, 2026-07-09 · Toronto Raptors
Baseline and projection
Ingram played 77 games at 33.8 MPG in 2025-26, producing 21.5 points, 5.6 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 0.8 steals, 0.7 blocks, 1.8 threes and 2.4 turnovers on .477/.820 shooting. He then had a right-heel spur removed May 8. Toronto expected a full recovery and readiness for September camp; that is encouraging but still requires an unrestricted-camp check.

Fantasy value
- Nine-category: rank 55-75; balanced scoring/percentages without a dominant category.
- Points: 35.3 simple FP/G, roughly rank 50-70.
- Dynasty: rank 70-100 entering age 29; destination and long-term role add volatility.
- Ceiling: top 45 if he remains in Toronto, repeats 75+ games and lifts assists toward five.
- Floor: the trade closes late, role/medical disruption costs camp, or a heel recurrence cuts both games and efficiency.
The model line is portable to either Toronto or the Clippers, but the category mix could change: Toronto shares creation with Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett, while a rebuilding Clippers context might grant more shots. In drafts, price the player rather than assign him Toronto's exact schedule until the transaction resolves.

Note on 2024-25: traded from New Orleans to Toronto on 2025-02-06 but never appeared for the Raptors that season, so the 18-game line is entirely New Orleans.
Fantasy history: Season-end 9-category ranks from a rank provider (Basketball Monster / Hashtag / ESPN Player Rater) were not verifiable for this entry, so no per-season numbers are asserted. What the box score supports: the 2019-20 through 2022-23 New Orleans seasons were the category peak, carrying elite free-throw percentage (.851/.878/.826/.882) on high volume plus above-average field-goal percentage — a rare both-percentages profile. The shape has always been thin at the edges: steals have never reached 1.1, blocks never 0.8, and turnovers run 2.4-3.8, so his category value is concentrated in points, percentages and assists rather than spread across nine. In points leagues he grades materially better than in categories, because the turnover drag is smaller and the counting-stat gaps in steals and blocks do not cost him.
Durability: GP by season — 79, 59, 52, 62, 61, 55, 45, 64, 18, 77. Causes: 2017-18 groin strain and a concussion; 2018-19 ended in March 2019 with deep vein thrombosis in the right arm, treated with thoracic outlet syndrome surgery; 2019-20 was a 72-game league season, so 62 of 72; 2022-23 lost roughly two and a half months to a left big-toe contusion from November 2022 into January 2023; 2024-25 was destroyed by a left ankle sprain suffered in December 2024, after which he never played again — the February trade to Toronto came while he was already shut down. 2025-26 was his healthiest season since his rookie year at 77 games, but he injured the heel in late March, played through it, logged 11 minutes in Game 5 of the Cleveland series and missed Games 6 and 7, then had a right heel spur removed on 2026-05-08 with a September camp timeline.
Trajectory: The real leap was 2019-20, the first New Orleans season: role change from third option on a Lakers roster to primary creator, plus a shot-diet change that took his three-point volume from 0.6 makes a game to 2.4, produced Most Improved Player and an All-Star nod. Everything after that has been a plateau, not a climb — points per game have sat between 20.8 and 24.7 for seven straight seasons on stable 33-34 minutes, which means the per-36 rate is genuinely flat and the year-to-year wobble is efficiency and health, not development. The one real change in 2025-26 was directional: assists fell from the 5.2-5.8 New Orleans band to 3.7 because Toronto runs creation through Barnes and Quickley, while three-point volume recovered to 1.8 makes — he became more of a scorer and less of a hub. At 28 turning 29 he is at the front edge of the decline curve for a wing whose game is built on mid-range touch rather than athleticism, which historically ages well, but the 2024-25 wipeout and the heel surgery mean the availability distribution matters more than the per-game one. For 2026-27 the honest read is that the 21-and-change scoring line is stable and repeatable if he plays, the assist total stays suppressed in any offense with another primary, and the whole projection is a bet on whether 77 games was a return to baseline or a single healthy outlier between two surgeries.

Open questions
- Does the Leonard trade close, change terms, or collapse?
- Is the heel fully cleared before camp?
- If moved to LA, who shares primary creation and how aggressively does the team manage his workload?
