Raptors' Fred VanVleet (hip) doubtful for Game 6 on Thursday
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (hip) is doubtful for Game 6 against the Philadelphia 76ers on Thursday.
What It Means:
VanVleet continues to deal with a hip injury that forced him to miss Game 5 and is not expected to return to action in Game 6 on Thursday. Scottie Barnes started in his place and could continue to do so. Assuming VanVleet is ruled out, our models expect Barnes to play 36.3 minutes against the 76ers.
Barnes' Game 6 projection includes 14.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and 31.9 FanDuel points.
