Michael Grange: Nurse says Otto Porter jr. (hamstring) hasn’t played in weeks, so certainly doesn’t seem all that close to a return (my inference) and Boucher (hamstring) is out for ‘a couple of weeks.’

The top-3 dancers on the Raptors, according to Scottie Barnes:
1. himself
2. O.G. (“Even though he’s got awkward movements, at least he tries so I’ll give him an A for effort”)
3. Achiuwa (“Precious has some moves”)
Honourable mention: Chris Boucher (“Closing in at No. 3”) – 1:09 PM

Feel for Chris Boucher not even being able to make the trip to Montreal because of a non-covid illness, would’ve been a special homecoming after the season he had and well earned contract over the summer. – 12:48 PM

It’ll be a rather disappointing homecoming for Chris Boucher, who won’t play (hamstring) when Raptors are in Montreal on Friday,
I hope/presume they’ll let Chris address the crowd before the game and bask in an ovation
Otto Porter Jr also a no-go and Malachi Flynn is still out – 3:03 PM

Sounds like Otto Porter Jr., Chris Boucher, and Malachi Flynn will be out for the preseason finale in Montréal. – 12:58 PM

With opening night a week away, Nick Nurse says that the hope/goal is to have Otto Porter Jr. and Chris Boucher back for the start of the season, but their status is still up in the air. Sounds like they’ll be held out the rest of camp with their hamstring injuries. – 12:54 PM

JaMychal Green to the bench w/20 points in 20 minutes. 4-5 on 3s. 8 rebounds.
Looking like Otto Porter 2.0 – 11:50 PM

More on this storyline
Josh Lewenberg: Nick Nurse anticipates Juancho Hernangomez being part of the rotation, especially early in the season with Porter and Boucher banged up. Nurse says they’ve been managing his minutes in preseason after his busy summer but need his shooting with the second unit. -via Twitter @JLew1050 / October 13, 2022
Eric Koreen: In a bummer, Chris Boucher will not play in Montreal on Friday because of a hamstring injury. Hope is that both he and Porter will be available for opening night, but that is not certain at all. -via Twitter @ekoreen / October 12, 2022
Ryan Wolstat: Raptors resting Fred VanVleet tonight vs. Houston in addition to the three injuries (Porter, Flynn, Champagnie) -via Twitter @WolstatSun / October 7, 2022
Josh Lewenberg: Chris Boucher, who was already ruled out for tomorrow’s preseason game vs Boston with a hamstring injury, will no longer be travelling with the team to Montreal due to a non COVID illness. Bummer. He was looking forward to the homecoming. -via Twitter @JLew1050 / October 13, 2022
