On January 29, 2019, he was named a member of the World Team representing the United Kingdom for the 2015 Rising Stars Challenge. However, he had an emergency appendectomy in April 2019, which caused him to miss most of the Raptors’ championship playoff run. Besides, he dressed for the NBA Finals but did not play as the Raptors went on to win the title. This made him become the first British person to win an NBA championship. He went on to score 32 points and recorded seven steals along with seven rebounds and three assists on March 1, 2020, in a 133-118 loss against the Denver Nuggets.

He scored a season-high 30 points on January 24, 2021, while getting 8 rebounds, 1 assist, 5 steals, and a block in a 107-102 win against the Indiana Pacers.
