Toronto Raptors' Jamison Battle seeks more consistent role in Year 3

Toronto Raptors forward Jamison Battle aims for a more stable position in his third NBA season. Despite maintaining solid shooting percentages of 40.5% in his rookie season and 41.2% in his second, his playing time fluctuated greatly, totaling just 517 minutes last season. The Raptors' roster changes, including the trade of Gradey Dick and the departure of Sandro Mamukelashvili, have cleared opportunity on the wing. With a clearer hierarchy emerging, Battle hopes to establish a more consistent presence on the court this year.
