Scottie Barnes was able to do some running and jumping with Raptors assistant coaches on Sunday .

Barnes landed on the foot of Knicks centre Karl-Anthony Towns during last week's visit to Scotiabank Arena .

No real veteran capable of handling the point position meant Barrett was thrust into the role.

The Raptors have lost four games in a row and are 1-12 on the road.

Head coach Darko Rajakovic liked the 10 assists Barrett recorded in Miami .

“I was very pleased at the way he handled the pressure and with it comes the learning. He can definitely do a better job in handling the situations. I’ve already seen a lot of progress.”.
