Captain options:
Pascal Siakam: Raptors’ superstar at this moment. His performances are the reason why Kawhi Leonard is not being as much as expected. He is averaging 27.2 points per game this season.
Luka Doncic: Destines for greatness. He is an absolute beast despite playing in only his second season in NBA. He is averaging 28.7 points per game this season.
Impact players:
Fred VanVleet
Tim Hardaway Jr.
Kristaps Porzingis
—————————————————————————————————————————–
Dallas Mavericks: The home team is at full strength for this game.
Toronto Raptors: But the visitors have some issues as key players are still out at this moment. The biggest name missing from Raptors’ roster these days is Kyle Lowry who remains out due to a finger injury he suffered against New Orleans Pelicans a fortnight ago.
Back-up big man Serge Ibaka is also out due to an ankle injury. But he could return to the team next week. Patrick McCaw is out as well.
But OG Anunoby could be available here after Raptors put him on the questionable list ahead of the match.
