Chris Boucher (back) will not play Monday for Raptors

Toronto Raptors power forward Chris Boucher (back) will not play Monday against the Portland Trail Blazers.

What It Means:

Boucher exited the fourth quarter of Saturday’s loss to the Detroit Pistons with a sore back and he said it's still affecting his running. Precious Achiuwa (shoulder) is questionable, potentially opening up plenty of minutes for Khem Birch up front. Boucher played over 20 minutes last Thursday for the first time this season, but he followed up with just 11 minutes in the next game before leaving late.

Boucher is registering a 21.2% usage rate and averaging 0.93 FanDuel points per minute this season, but he's only playing 13.4 minutes per game.
