Marc Gasol (left hamstring) ruled out for Raptors on Thursday

Toronto Raptors center Marc Gasol (left hamstring tightness) will not play Thursday versus the Cleveland Cavaliers.

What It Means:

Thursday is the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Raptors are going to hold Gasol out. He scored just 4 points with 4 rebounds in the second leg of the Raptors' last back-to-back. Serge Ibaka and Chris Boucher should both see a boost on Thursday.

Gasol is averaging 24.7 FanDuel points per game. numberFire's models project him for 10.7 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.1 steals, 1.1 blocks, and 0.7 3-pointers over the rest of the season.
