Logs 37 minutes in return VanVleet closed Monday's 113-99 loss to the Bulls with 19 points (7-22 FG, 3-12 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 37 minutes.

Impact VanVleet returned for the Raptors on Monday, falling one assist shy of a double-double. Despite putting together clearly his best season from both a fantasy and a reality standpoint, injuries have soured his last few weeks. In fact, he has played in only 10 of Toronto's past 19 games, capping his overall appeal, especially in head-to-head formats. It appears as though he is going to play through his injury when possible, meaning managers should expect another missed game or two the rest of the way.

Impact VanVleet has been playing through a knee issue, but he sat out the first half of Toronto's back-to-back set Sunday for injury management. However, the point guard is expected to be back in the starting lineup Monday, which should mean lesser roles for Armoni Brooks and Dalano Banton.

Impact VanVleet was upgraded from questionable to probable earlier in the evening, so it's no surprise he's in the starting lineup for Toronto.
