Raptors face Bucks in Milwaukee without Birch, rookie Barnes

MILWAUKEE - The Toronto Raptors planned to hold rookie Scottie Barnes out of Saturday’s game against the Bucks for injury management.

The rookie had missed a game for knee tendinitis, but returned for Toronto’s 107-93 loss at Detroit on Friday.

The Raptors will also be without Khem Birch, who suffered a broken noise against the Pistons.

Toronto (20-19) is ninth in the Eastern Conference, and have lost two in a row after a six-game winning streak.
