Fate befalls Scottie Barnes

It's not just Brandon Ingram and Kevin Durant who go back and forth between the fields and the infirmary, since Scottie Barnes joins the injured list again. Fighting for the rebound in the 3rd quarter of the game Monday night against the Knicks, the All-Star winger fell on the foot of Karl-Anthony Towns. “ Scottie's right ankle has turned » confirmed Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic. “ We did an x-ray, it came back negative. We'll see how he feels tomorrow and we'll see from there. »

Unfortunately, the next day, the ankle did not deflate, and ESPN announces that he will miss several weeks of competition. Maybe we won't see him again until 2025. A new blow for the Raptors, who were already playing without Immanuel Quickley or Bruce Brown. But also for the player, who had already missed 11 matches due to a facial fracture, after taking Nikola Jokic's elbow in the face.

This is also why he has worn glasses since his return to competition. Due to injuries on both sides, Rajakovic has still not been able to field his major trio, Barrett-Quickley-Barnes. He will therefore probably have to wait until 2025 to do so.
