TORONTO – Forward O.G. Anunoby and guard Gary Trent Jr. were both ruled out of the Raptors’ lineup as Toronto hosted the Washington Wizards on Monday.
Anunoby lacerated a finger on his right hand doing household chores on Sunday and Trent is out with plantar fasciitis in his right foot.
“I was not there. I wish I was there to help out with that,” said Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic about Anunoby’s fluke injury. “But it happened.”
