The Toronto Raptors saw all of the positive momentum they acquired during a win over the Brooklyn Nets, their fourth consecutive win, blunted when they were dealt some grim injury news about standout reserve Chris Boucher.

Boucher left the win with what was termed a left knee sprain, meaning that there is a good chance the Raptors will not have his services for the next few games. Considering where they are in the standings, this could be a crippling blow for their morale and the state of Nick Nurse’s rotations.
