Estadísticas de jugadores y previa: Miami Heat contra Toronto Raptors (2 mar 2027)

Head coach Darko Rajakovic said Wednesday that Leonard (knee) is doing individual on-court work and is progressing well, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports. The Raptors are expected to provide another update on Leonard's status in about one week, though it's encouraging to see how he's progressed thus far. Collin Murray-Boyles and Ja'Kobe Walter are candidates for increased playing time for as long as Leonard is sidelined.

Barnes (groin) is out for Thursday's game against Philadelphia. The star forward is missing a fourth straight game with a groin strain. Ja'Kobe Walter should continue to take on additional playmaking responsibilites in Barnes' stead, while Collin Murray-Boyles should keep starting at power forward.

Jackson-Davis is out for Thursday's game against the 76ers due to an illness. Jackson-Davis is missing both ends of Toronto's back-to-back set with the ailment. Jamison Battle should handle a larger role in the frontcourt Thursday.

McCullar signed a two-way contract with the Raptors on Thursday, Michael Scotto of HoopsHype.com reports. McCullar quickly finds a new home after being waived by the Knicks in late October. The forward is expected to play a prominent role for Toronto's G League affiliate.

Bittle (foot) is listed as out for Monday's game against Memphis. Bittle has been battling a foot injury for a couple of months. It's unknown when the rookie will be cleared to suit up for the Raptors, so he should be considered week-to-week for now.

Larsson (illness) is out for Friday's game against Cleveland. Larsson is sidelined for the first half of this back-to-back set with an illness. The expectation is that Andrew Wiggins will move back into the starting lineup after beginning the campaign as a member of the first unit.

Thompson (ankle) is out for Friday's game against the Cavaliers. The Heat sent mixed signals regarding the status of Thompson, first listing him as probable and later questionable before ruling him out altogether. With Andrew Wiggins already in line to fill in for Pelle Larsson (illness) on Friday, rookie second-rounder Ryan Conwell could be preparing for his first career start.
