5 years agoToronto Raptors point/shooting guard Fred Vanvleet has been ruled out for Monday’s game against the Chicago Bulls due to a right knee contusion. Vanvleet departed Sunday’s outing versus Philadelphia early, which put his status for Monday up in the air almost immediately. Without Vanvleet in the mix, Norman Powell and Terence Davis figure to see increased roles, while Kyle Lowry should handle nearly all of the ball-handling duties. Vanvleet -- who has been an ironman early on, averaging 36.6 minutes per game, the fifth-highest total in the league -- is next eligible to suit up Wednesday versus the Clippers.--Jesse Borek
