The Toronto Raptors are still dealing with a ton of injuries.
The good news is all of the Raptors injured players were participating in workout drills following practice on Thursday afternoon, according to Sports Illustrated’s Aaron Rose.
Scottie Barnes who has missed the team’s last 8 games was wearing a black mask while he was doing some drills. Barnes is recovering from an orbital bone fracture that won’t require surgery. Barnes has yet to be cleared for contact and he will be reevaluated next week before the team sets a timeline for his return:

Immanuel Quickley will be out for at least one week with an elbow injury. He was working out while wearing a protective sleeve on his left elbow, per Rose. Quickley is working his way back from an UCL sprain. He will be reevaluated in a week before the team decides what’s next for him.
Bruce Brown is progressing to make his season debut for the Raptors following knee surgery, but he has yet to be cleared for contact, per Rose.
Kelly Olynyk has also not been cleared for contact but he was shooting around following practice, per Rose. Olynyk has been dealing with a back injury that has kept him out since the preseason.
Raptors rookie Ja’Kobe Walter re-injured his AC joint and he will have a follow-up appointment on Tuesday before the Raptors will share an update on his health status, per Rose.
The Raptors have currently lost 5 games in a row. They have returned home from their five-game road trip and they are looking to pick up a win against the Detroit Pistons on Nov. 15. Then the Raptors will be right back on the road for a date against the Boston Celtics on Nov. 16.
