Monday was an eventful day for the Toronto Raptors. It was announced that Toronto would sign Jeremy Lin once his buyout with Atlanta was finalized. In addition, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN also announced Fred VanVleet would miss at least three weeks with a “partial ligament injury to his left thumb.”
Raptors guard Fred VanVleet will miss at least three weeks with left thumb injury, team says.
There is never an ideal time for an injury especially with the Raptors gearing up for their stretch run. However, VanVleet will only miss two games before the All-Star break and should only miss five games after.
