Raptors' Fred VanVleet (shoulder) says he'll play in Game 3
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet said he'll fine for Game 3 against the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
VanVleet played just three minutes in Game 2, after missing Game 1 due to a sore shoulder. He didn't look right in his return, but he said, "You're gonna have to cut my arm off to get me to not feel like I can play." It's uncertain if VanVleet will be back to his usual workload on Friday. Delon Wright would play a few more minutes off the bench if he's limited.
Our models project VanVleet for 19.1 minutes and 17.8 FanDuel points in Thursday's road game against the Wizards.
