What It Means:

Head coach Dwayne Casey said he doesn't know how long Lowry will be out. Cory Joseph will likely get the start in his place for tonight's matchup with the Celtics. DeMar DeRozan is going to be extremely active on offense for the Raptors.

Without accounting for Lowry's absence, our models expect DeRozan to turn in 26.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.8 3-pointers versus Boston.
