Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett will be out for at least another week after receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection for his sprained right knee, following an injury sustained on Nov. 23. He has missed eight games and is currently averaging 19.4 points per game, his lowest since the 2020-21 season, despite a career-best shooting rate of 50.6%. The Raptors, with a record of 15-10, face New York in the NBA Cup quarterfinals on Tuesday. A win would advance them to the semifinals on Saturday.
