Toronto Raptors bei Charlotte Hornets

Leonard is expected to miss both of Toronto's first two preseason games as part of his ramp-up plan. He'll have three more chances to suit up before the regular season if he's held out of next Saturday's contest.

Anderson will miss the Raptors' preseason opener after sitting out Thursday's scrimmage with a right knee contusion. His next opportunity to suit up in the preseason will come next Saturday against the Clippers.

Battle was held out of Thursday's scrimmage due to a lower-back injury, and he'll remain sidelined for Toronto's preseason opener. His next chance to play in the preseason will come next Saturday against the Clippers.

Jackson-Davis is one of several Toronto players who won't suit up for Saturday's preseason opener, along with several other names such as Allen Graves (groin), Kawhi Leonard (not injury related), Nate Bittle (foot) and others. Jackson-Davis' next chance to play will come against the Clippers on Saturday, Oct. 10.

Martin missed the Raptors' Summer League finale on July 19, and he didn't play in the preseason opener either. However, even if he's cleared to play before the regular season starts, he shouldn't be a regular member of the rotation. Martin appeared in just 23 regular-season games in 2025-26, averaging just 6.3 minutes and 2.2 points per game.

Knueppel's status for Opening Night remains uncertain as he continues to work his way back from his left hamstring injury. Peterson's comments suggest the Hornets aren't ready to rule out the second-year wing, though his availability will likely become clearer as training camp progresses. He has already been ruled out for the entire preseason, to be clear.

Williams will be re-evaluated the first week of the regular season, putting his status for Opening Night in the air. Williams will have a difficult path to minutes this season as he competes with the likes of Naz Reid, Royce O'Neale and Tidjane Salaun.
