The Toronto Raptors are facing yet another challenge as they prepare to take on the Orlando Magic, with swingman RJ Barrett being listed as doubtful for the game. Barrett has missed the last two games due to an undisclosed illness, leaving the Raptors without their projected starting lineup once again.
Despite the absence of Barrett, the Raptors are nearing a complete lineup with the return of point guard Immanuel Quickley, who has recently come back from an elbow injury. The team is eager to see their optimal starting five, which includes Barrett, Quickley, Scottie Barnes, Jakob Poeltl, and Gradey Dick, play together for the first time this season.
The quintet last played together on March 2, prior to Barnes suffering a hand injury that sidelined him. Quickley has only participated in four games this season, but he was instrumental in the Raptors' recent victory over the Brooklyn Nets, which ended an 11-game losing streak.
