Moves to bench Trent isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's game versus the Bulls, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Shoots poorly in loss Trent notched seven points (2-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds and one assist in 27 minutes during Sunday's 118-93 loss to the Cavaliers.
Impact In his previous 16 contests, Trent had pumped in 19.6 points per game. However, Sunday was the first time since Jan. 14 that he failed to hit double figures. He had his second-worst shooting night of the season at 15.4 percent from the floor. Fred VanVleet, Toronto's leader in assists, has missed the last three games for personal reasons, but Trent's assist numbers have not seen a boost with six helpers in the last three games.

Pops for 18 points Thursday Trent finished Thursday's 115-110 victory over the Pelicans with 18 points (6-16 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one assist and two steals in 37 minutes.
Impact After missing two straight games due to a calf injury, Trent was back on the court Thursday, shifting straight into the starting lineup. It remains to be seen whether he will stick in that role, given Fred VanVleet was a late scratch due to personal reasons. Although his overall value is tied to only a few categories, Trent should be able to maintain 12-team value for the rest of the season, no matter his assigned position in the rotation.

Sitting Sunday with calf strain Trent has been ruled out in advance of Sunday's game against the Pistons due to a left calf strain, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Even before OG Anunoby (wrist) was sidelined in late January, the Raptors were already sorely lacking in guard and wing depth, and Trent's absence Sunday will likely result in Toronto leaning even more on its big-heavy lineups. The news of Trent's injury comes out of nowhere, as he played 39 minutes in Toronto's previous game Friday against the Jazz and didn't appear on the injury report leading up to Sunday's 3 p.m. ET tipoff. Unless he's able to practice Monday in some capacity, Trent will most likely miss the Raptors' final game before the All-Star break Tuesday versus the Magic.
