Precious Achiuwa, Yuta Watanabe Will Suit Up Wednesday
3 years agoToronto Raptors center Precious Achiuwa (shoulder) and shooting guard/power forward Yuta Watanabe (calf) have been cleared to play in Wednesday's game against Memphis. Achiuwa could see a slight minutes bump due to the absence of Khem Birch (knee), although the 22-year-old's role has remained steady across his first 15 games. Watanabe will be making his season debut when he checks into the game for Toronto, so he's unlikely to make much of a fantasy impact out of the gate. The 27-year-old appeared in 50 games with the Raptors last season, but he averaged just 14.4 minutes on a nightly basis bench, primarily filling in as a lightly utilized bench piece.
