Estadísticas de jugadores y previa: Toronto Raptors contra Atlanta Hawks

Gueye underwent surgery Tuesday to repair a fractured left foot that he suffered during a workout last week, Brad Rowland of the Locked On Podcast Network reports. Gueye will be re-evaluated by medical staff in 3-to-4 months, which means he'll miss all of training camp and preseason and likely the start of the 2026-27 regular season. It's a brutal blow for the fourth-year big man, given that the Hawks used the No. 23 overall pick of the 2026 NBA Draft to select St. John's product Zuby Ejiofor. Gueye's absence means Ejiofor will have more opportunities in the preseason, and the rookie could establish a key role off the bench behind Onyeka Okongwu and projected backup center Jock Landale (ankle).

Newell (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers. Newell will miss a third consecutive contest due to a left great toe hyperextension. The second-year forward's absence will leave additional playing time for Luguentz Dort and Aaron Wiggins.

Gilbert (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers. Gilbert will miss a third straight game due to left knee inflammation. However, his absence shouldn't affect the rotation.

Veesaar was diagnosed with a torn right ACL and is expected to miss the 2026-27 season, the Hawks announced Monday. Veesaar suffered the injury during a workout on Sept. 15, and an MRI confirmed the diagnosis. The No. 52 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft, Veesaar was expected to spend a lot of time with Atlanta's G League affiliate this season. Reported out for season.

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 Wednesday's game against Boston. The star forward is missing a third straight game with a groin strain. Ja'Kobe Walter should continue to handle additional playmaking duties in Barnes' stead.

Jackson-Davis (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Celtics, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Jackson-Davis is under the weather and will sit out the front end of this back-to-back set. If Collin Murray-Boyles (illness) joins Jackson-Davis on the inactive list, Jamison Battle and Kyle Anderson would likely see increased burn.

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.
