Overview

  • Ingram, the team announced Friday, had a right-heel spur removed by Dr. Martin O’Malley at New York’s Hospital for Special Surgery.
  • The Raptors expect a full recovery with a return to team activities for September training camp.
  • The heel trouble flared in March, and the team listed the issue as inflammation that cost him three late regular-season games.
  • He played five games against Cleveland with a sharp drop in production, then missed Games 6 and 7 after aggravating the injury.
  • The 2026 All-Star led Toronto with 21.5 points in 77 games and is signed through 2027–28, giving him the summer to rehab and rebuild on-court work.
