David Johnson - Still out Sunday Johnson (knee) is out Sunday against the Cavaliers, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
Impact Johnson has been dealing with left knee inflammation recently and will be unavailable for a third straight game. His continued absence won't impact Toronto's rotation.
MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
D.J. Wilson - Remains out Sunday Wilson (knee) is out Sunday against Cleveland, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
Impact Wilson continues to deal with left knee soreness and will be unavailable for a fourth straight game. His absence won't impact the Raptors' rotation.

Fred VanVleet - Questionable Sunday VanVleet (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cavaliers, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
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.

Malachi Flynn - Questionable Sunday Flynn is questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland due to a hamstring strain, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
Impact Flynn has taken on a starting role in each of the last four games, and he scored a season-high 20 points in Friday's loss to the Magic. However, he apparently sustained a hamstring injury in the narrow loss, so his status for Sunday's matchup is in jeopardy. If Flynn is available, his role will depend on whether Fred VanVleet (knee) is able to return to the court.

Gary Trent Jr. - Held in check Friday Trent ended Friday's 103-97 loss to the Magic with four points (2-12 FG, 0-9 3Pt), two rebounds and three assists in 27 minutes.
Impact Trent had shot just 25.0 percent from beyond the arc across his last two appearances, and he failed to convert any of his nine three-point attempts during Friday's defeat. As a result, he finished with his lowest scoring total of the season. Trent displayed plenty of fantasy upside earlier in the season, but he's had inconsistent results recently. Across his nine appearances since posting a season-high 42 points against the Rockets on Feb. 10, he's shot just 29.6 percent from the floor and has averaged 13.6 points, 2.6 assists and 2.3 rebounds in 33.3 minutes per game.
MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Malachi Flynn - Productive in loss Flynn recorded 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, eight assists, one block and one steal over 39 minutes during Friday's 103-97 loss to the Magic.
Impact Flynn remained in the starting lineup for a fourth consecutive game and led the Raptors in assists while reaching the 20-point threshold for the first time this season. Since taking on a starting role, he's averaged 16.0 points, 5.5 assists and 4.0 rebounds in 35.8 minutes per game. Flynn's role is dependent on the status of Fred VanVleet (knee), but the latter doesn't yet have a timetable for his return.
MARCH 5, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Pascal Siakam - Strong double-double in loss Siakam recorded 34 points (13-20 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-8 FT), 14 rebounds and two assists across 40 minutes during Friday's 103-97 loss to the Magic.
Impact Siakam had been limited to single-digit boards in each of his last three appearances, but he bounced back Friday en route to his second double-double in the last five games. Across those five appearances, he's averaged 20.4 points, 8.0 rebounds and 4.2 assists in 37.0 minutes per game. While Siakam's fantasy upside has been limited by his inconsistency on the boards, he's maintained a relatively solid floor due to his well-rounded production.
