Raptors Notes: Leonard, Barnes, Quickley, Poeltl, More

The Toronto Raptors announced that forward Kawhi Leonard will miss at least one more week as he continues his reconditioning following treatment for left knee swelling. Leonard, who has been sidelined since October 23, sat on the bench during Toronto's Monday home loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley also missed their second consecutive games due to an adductor strain and hamstring issue, respectively, while Collin Murray-Boyles was sidelined with an illness.

Despite the defeat against Memphis, Jakob Poeltl delivered a strong performance with 18 points and four blocks after recently missing time with shoulder bursitis, while Jamal Shead recorded a 20-point, 11-assist double-double. Head coach Darko Rajakovic also indicated that backup big man Trayce Jackson-Davis needs consistent energy and motor to earn playing time, while guard Alijah Martin continues to work toward full explosiveness following offseason knee surgery.
