Practices Tuesday VanVleet (knee) was a full participant during Tuesday's practice and is expected to make his return Wednesday against San Antonio, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact VanVleet has been sidelined for five consecutive games to manage soreness in his right knee, but it appears he will potentially make his return Wednesday. The point guard is averaging 21.4 points, 6.9 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 38.2 minutes per game, but he'll likely be under a minute restriction when he does make his eventual return to game action.

Impact VanVleet will be sidelined for the fifth consecutive contest as he continues to manage soreness in his right knee. Malachi Flynn (hamstring) is also out, leaving Toronto extremely short on backcourt depth.

Impact Coach Nick Nurse said Friday that VanVleet doesn't yet have a timetable to return, but he'll be listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup. If VanVleet is forced to miss a fifth consecutive game, Malachi Flynn (hamstring) should remain in the starting lineup if he's available.

Impact VanVleet will miss a fourth straight game Friday against the Magic due to right knee soreness, which has been an on-and-off issue for him since January. VanVleet has been playing 38.2 minutes per game and is averaging 21.4 points, 6.9 assists, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 steals, so his absence is a massive loss for the Raptors. Malachi Flynn will presumably continue starting in VanVleet's absence, and Scottie Barnes and Pascal Siakam figure to pick up extra usage as well.

Impact The point guard continues to deal with knee soreness, and he'll be held out for the fifth time in the last nine games. Expect Malachi Flynn to make another start in VanVleet's place.
