The Raptors have been playing extremely shorthanded recently, and they’ve ruled out four of their usual starters for Sunday’s matchup vs. the Thunder. Kyle Lowry will rest for the fourth straight game, while Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, and OG Anunoby have all been ruled out with various injuries. That leaves the team without arguably their four best players.
The one positive is that Gary Trent Jr. is not listed on the injury report, which suggests that he will return to the lineup after missing the past two games. Trent has increased his usage rate by +5.
