Raptors Injury News: Jakob Poeltl ruled out for clash against Miami
"Poeltl was only able to feature for seven minutes in the contest and came away with just two points and two rebounds before leaving the game. The Raptors ended up losing the game 96 to 81. Poeltl will miss his tenth game of the season tomorrow, as he's played and started in all 21 games that he was available for."
"RJ Barrett has also been ruled out for the game in Miami, as tomorrow marks a month since RJ was last seen in an official NBA contest. The offence has shown a ton of struggles without him and is eager to have his 19.4 points per game contribution back out there. He is, however, getting closer to a return as he's resumed basketball activities, so it shouldn't be a much longer wait to see the return of Barrett."
"For now, no official word on the Miami Heat injury report, but currently, on theScore app, it shows four names on the list. Tyler Herro has been sidelined due to a toe injury, Pelle Larsson has an ankle injury, Nikola Jovic should be out due to a recent elbow injury, and Terry Rozier is listed as out, not injury-related, due to his ties with the most recent sports betting scandal that came out around the start of the 2025/26 NBA season."
Jakob Poeltl will miss the Raptors' upcoming game against the Miami Heat after sustaining a back injury against the Brooklyn Nets. Poeltl played seven minutes in that contest, recording two points and two rebounds before exiting, and will miss his tenth game of the season despite starting every game he was available for. RJ Barrett has been out for nearly a month, depriving the offence of his 19.4 points per game, though he has resumed basketball activities and is nearing a return. TheScore lists multiple Heat absences including Tyler Herro, Pelle Larsson, Nikola Jovic, and Terry Rozier.
