[Lewenberg] Darko Rajakovic was asked if there’s a chance that Scottie Barnes and/or Jakob Poeltl could return for any of the Raptors’ final 5 games of the season; he would neither confirm nor deny. “They’re ramping up and we’re trying to get them in the best state possible.”

Just keep em out unless it’s the pacers game lmao
gotta get Scottie ready for team USA and the Olympics 😀
Rushing them back to play in essentially meaningless games would be ridiculously short sighted and honestly, reckless as well.
Our last 2 games are against the Heat and the smart thing to do would be to lose those games to boost their standings over the Pacers. So I doubt these two come back
They want to re-sign Scottie. They’re not going to rush him back and him injure his hand again or anything else especially when they’re already eliminated.
With RJ and IQ this team is all offense + no defence most nights.
That’s probably a lot of losses, but they will be some very entertaining losses against good teams where the Raps still put up 100-110 points.
In theory Wizards and Brooklyn would be wins, while the Pacers are possibly a loss where the Raps still put up 100+ points
Scottie at 19.9 ppg. Get him to 20 then sit him out
Scottie won’t be back, he’s the franchise, they aren’t risking any further injuries when we have no shot at the playoffs
