The Raptors will be without OG Anunoby, Fred VanVleet, Pascal Siakam, Patrick McCaw and Malachi Flynn when they open the second half of the NBA regular season on Thursday. As well, Terence Davis II is listed as questionable with a sprained left ankle. There was no word on the availability of coach Nick Nurse or six members of his staff who also missed pre-break games for the same coronavirus-related protocols. The Raptors were scheduled to practise late Wednesday afternoon and hold a media availability later in the evening. After Thursday’s game in Tampa, they’re scheduled to play Saturday in Charlotte and Sunday in Chicago.
