"The Raptors are on the road against the Indiana Pacers tonight, and the injury report is growing longer by the minute. It was announced that Immanuel Quickley and Garrett Temple are both questionable for tonight's matchup due to back spasms per Blake Murphy. The two guards join Sandro Mamukelashvili (illness) on the questionable list while RJ Barrett (ankle), Ja'Kobe Walter (hip), Jakob Poeltl (back), and Chucky Hepburn (knee) have been ruled out."
"The potential absence of three rotation guards will provide ample opportunity for players like Alijah Martin and AJ Lawson - who have excelled since being called up from the Raptors 905 - to step up for the Raptors. If Mamukelashvili also misses tonight's game, it could provide a chance for Jonathan Mogbo to get a crack in the rotation as the backup center behind rookie Collin Murray-Boyles."
Several Raptors players are injured or listed as questionable for tonight's road game against the Indiana Pacers, including Immanuel Quickley and Garrett Temple (both questionable with back spasms) and Sandro Mamukelashvili (illness). RJ Barrett (ankle), Ja'Kobe Walter (hip), Jakob Poeltl (back), and Chucky Hepburn (knee) are ruled out. The Pacers will be missing Bennedict Mathurin, Isaiah Jackson, Obi Toppin and Tyrese Haliburton. Toronto's injuries increase vulnerability against a Pacers team on a three-game winning streak. Call-ups Alijah Martin and AJ Lawson could see expanded roles, and Jonathan Mogbo could enter the rotation if Mamukelashvili sits. Tip-off is 7:00pm ET.
