Ross attributed last season's struggles to an ankle injury that bothered him throughout the second half, the Toronto Sun reports. "It was frustrating," he said. "I would roll my ankle and go in the back and work on it, it would feel a little better, then I'd go right back out and roll my ankle again, so it was more just like physically taxing, it just kind of took a toll on me at the end of the year," Ross said.

Analysis:

He had offseason surgery to hopefully correct the issue, and Ross says he now feels healthier than he did last season. He'll be moving to the bench due to the DeMarre Carroll signing and has an opportunity to turn his career around in a more narrowly-defined role on the second unit, but Ross has a lot to prove as he heads into the final season of his rookie contract.
