Raptors' Fred VanVleet (personal) listed as out for Thursday night
Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet is listed as out in the game notes for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards.
What It Means:
It's just the game notes, but it would appear that it's only a matter of time before his absence is confirmed. VanVleet's wife gave birth on Sunday night, which is probably the reason he'll be away from the team. Delon Wright figures to get longer minutes off the Raptors' bench.
Over the last 4 games, VanVleet is averaging 19.6 minutes and 28 FanDuel points per game. If he's back with the team, we like him to tally 15 FD points Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers.
