The Toronto Raptors are managing multiple injuries ahead of their NBA Cup matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. Initially, the team was expected to play without three key stars: Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley, and Kawhi Leonard. Barnes was sidelined with left adductor and groin soreness, while Quickley faced right hamstring tightness. Coach Darko Rajakovic prepared a makeshift starting lineup including Jamal Shead, Ja’Kobe Walter, RJ Barrett, Collin Murray-Boyles, and Jakob Poeltl.

Subsequent updates indicated shifting availability for certain players. Center Jakob Poeltl was upgraded to probable status as he recovers from left shoulder bursitis, following a recent return in a reserve role. However, uncertainty remained regarding the status of Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley, and Kyle Anderson, all of whom were listed as questionable.
