The Raptors say Precious Achiuwa is out indefinitely with partial tears of ligaments in his right ankle. Already without Pascal Siakam, Toronto is now down another rangy forward. – 2:03 PM

The Raptors need more from Precious Achiuwa, but first they’ll need to hope that he’s healthy enough to give it to them.
On a frustrating night for the struggling forward – starting with a meeting and a challenge from his coach, and ending with an injury: https://t.co/i9YOFqJcLr pic.twitter.com/KpF2mbDjNr – 12:50 AM

Precious Achiuwa is getting an MRI done on his right ankle. His foot was in a wrap post-game (no walking boot, for what it’s worth). – 10:34 PM

Been another rough night for Precious Achiuwa, who took a hard fall on a drive/dish under the rim and immediately limped to the bench. He’s now being carried to the locker room. – 9:33 PM

Not a whole lot of defence being played right now – by the recently called out Precious Achiuwa, or anybody else for that matter. The 2-9 Houston Rockets shot 14-for-20 in the first quarter. 70%. SEVENTY. Raptors trail 37-29, and they’re lucky it’s not worse. – 8:06 PM

Not a ton of Raptors news pre-game but the tete a tete between Nick Nurse and Precious Achiuwa included no sugar coating,
“He just needs to play better, man. I’m always talking about playing hard on D and not executing. And he’s just having too much inconsistency,” Nurse said – 6:27 PM

Nurse said he had a 1-on-1 meeting Wednesday w/ Precious Achiuwa, and showed him some sub-par defensive clips, says he needs to be more consistent on that end to get up to the 25-30 min range he projected for him before the season (he’s at 21 now). “He just has to play better.” – 5:59 PM
