Available Sunday

Barnes was held out of Friday's loss to the Celtics but will shed his questionable tag Sunday due to a right knee sprain. The Raptors will likely rely heavily on the star forward in the front end of this back-to-back set against Philadelphia, as RJ Barrett (ankle), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) have all been ruled out. Over his last five games, Barnes has averaged 17.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks across 33.6 minutes per contest.

Ruled out for Sunday

Ingram will miss the first leg of this back-to-back set, but he's being listed as day-to-day, so perhaps he'll be able to return for Monday's rematch with the 76ers. Ja'Kobe Walter will have another opportunity to start with Ingram watching from the sidelines Sunday, and there will be more minutes available for Gradey Dick and Jamison Battle.

Questionable to play vs. 76ers

Barnes missed the loss to the Celtics on Friday, but the questionable tag suggests the star forward might have a shot at returning to action Sunday. Barnes is having another strong year with averages of 19.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists and a combined 1.8 steals-plus-blocks per game in 38 starts. If he's out Sunday, then Collin Murray-Boyles and Jamison Battle would be in line to see more minutes at the four.
