(Updating incorrect tweet): Fred VanVleet (knee) and Thad Young (non-COVID illness) are questionable vs. Pistsons; OG Anunoby (finger) is out, which is interesting. Suggests he/team are opting to allow his finger to heal (two weeks) vs. try to play through it? 🤷♂️ – 1:25 PM

No Anunoby, no VanVleet, no Wilson for the Raptors tonight. OG is coming along, could have been playing with the finger issue for weeks, no one is sure. Specialist said it’s close to fully healed – 6:01 PM

The hand specialist Anunoby saw in LA yesterday said his fractured finger is healing and should be fully healed within the next 2 weeks. He could be back sooner though. The team is trying to determine whether he’s able to play through the injury. He’s still experiencing pain. – 5:55 PM

No news from specialist for Anunoby. Specialist thinks it is nearly healed. Within two weeks it will be fully healed if he does not play in that time, Nurse thinks. He is not playing tonight. VanVleet is out, as is D.J. Wilson. – 5:52 PM

Update on OG Anunoby is “nothing new. Nothing we didn’t already know.” The specialist thought it was nearly healed. He’s able to play on it and he’ll be fully healthy in 2 weeks. Status is still TBD. He’s out tonight – 5:50 PM

Along with Fred VanVleet and D.J. Wilson, who both have knee ailments, OG Anunoby is questionable for tonight’s game with his ring finger fracture. Whether he plays or not, that is good news for the long term for Anunoby, who has missed the last three games. – 2:20 PM

Per Raptors: Anunoby (right ring finger), VanVleet (right knee soreness), DJ Wilson (left knee soreness) are QUESTIONABLE vs. Nets.
Very positive re: Anunoby given he got his finger checked out by specialist in LA Monday. Clearly not in need of surgery or long layoff. – 12:52 PM

Raptors now have Anunoby (finger) VanVleet (knee) and Wilson (knee) as “questionable” for tonight against the Nets
Would seem promising for Anunoby – 12:49 PM

OG Anunoby has been upgraded to questionable for tonight’s game vs Brooklyn – would presume that means yesterday’s appointment with the hand specialist went well. Fred VanVleet is also listed as questionable. – 12:48 PM

Without VanVleet and Anunoby, the Nets’ D is locked in on Siakam. Credit Pascal for making the right reads, and everybody else for knocking down shots. Barnes and Flynn (10-10 FG) haven’t missed, and the Raptors have hit 8 of their 12 3PA as a team. – 8:24 PM

Between VanVleet, Anunoby, Harris, Durant, Irving and Simmons, six of the top seven highest-paid players in this game are out. – 6:58 PM

Fred VanVleet (knee) is out vs. Nets; Anunoby (finger) also out. If you had Malachi Flynn starting along side Birch, Barnes, Siakam and Trent Jr., you win the pool, otherwise prize money will roll over till next time. – 6:57 PM

No update on Anunoby yet. VanVleet is more sore today and unlikely to play, but has not been ruled out. – 6:05 PM
