Announcement:Scottie Barnes announce his resignation from Raptors after….
OKLAHOMA CITY — Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes is a different type of star player. He is not going to isolate his man and look for his midrange jumpers often. He is not simply going to matchup hunt for the best opponent to attack. If you think that is what you are getting from him, adjust your expectations. That is not how the Raptors want to play.
With that said, Barnes is a talented offensive player. His passing ability is excellent, and he has the size and strength to finish from the paint in many ways. He is a weapon, full stop. He does not need to touch the ball every possession down the stretch of close games, but he should be involved, even if only as a decoy, most of the time.
