The Toronto Raptors return to Scotiabank Arena on Monday night to host the Memphis Grizzlies. Memphis opened the season with six straight wins but are now looking to return to winning ways after a hat trick of losses.

Meanwhile, the Raptors have won two of their last three and come into this game after a 121-107 win over the struggling Milwaukee Bucks. Both teams have plenty of injury concerns, with Toronto’s Kawhi Leonard once again listed as out due to his left knee injury.

Leonard played the opening two games of the season but will miss his eighth straight game. Both Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley remain sidelined. Barnes is dealing with a left groin strain, while Quickley has right hamstring tightness. Their absences means that the Raptors may as well be without three of their best scorers for this game.

To make matters worse, Collin Murray-Boyles is also out with an illness.

Meanwhile, Memphis also have a glut of supporting players unavailable for this game. Karim Lopez is out on G League assignment, while Scotty Pippen Jr. will miss the game because of a lumbar disc herniation. Richie Saunders is sidelined following right knee surgery, and Isaiah Stewart is also out with a right knee injury.

Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley’s injury status vs. Grizzlies

Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley both missed Toronto’s previous game against Milwaukee.

Barnes is currently averaging a career-high 23.5 points, 7.6 rebounds and 5.1 assists across eight appearances while also recording 2.3 steals per game. He has shot 47.5% from the field and is his team’s leading scorer in the season thus far.

Meanwhile, Quickley is averaging 17.4 points, 3.5 rebounds and 5.8 assists this season. His absence leaves Toronto without another major ball-handler and scoring option, particularly with Leonard already sidelined.

The Raptors could again lean on RJ Barrett, who scored 27 points against Milwaukee, while Jamal Shead and Ja’Kobe Walter are likely to once again handle increased minutes. Leonard last played for Toronto in the win over the Washington Wizards and is expected to be out for another week. Regardless, the Raptors’ rotation has in recent games shown the ability to step up despite the missing stars.

Barrett and Alijah Martin each scored 27 points, while Collin Murray-Boyles added 19. Still, the Grizzlies are up 4-0 away from home and are likely to be a major challenge. Ty Jerome leads the team with 26.6 points and 5.2 assists per game, and may once again need to star if his team is to get their first win in four games.
