It sounds like RJ Barrett is progressing and may be able to return at some point in the next couple of days. He took part in practice and has been cleared for contact as he works his way back from an AC joint sprain, Rajaković said. The plan is to see how he feels during shootaround on Friday before making a final decision.

The 22-year-old rookie may be counted on to play a bigger role with starting point guard Immanuel Quickley listed as questionable on Thursday, a day before Toronto hosts the visiting Philadelphia 76ers.

Immanuel Quickley is good to go. The Toronto Raptors will have Quickley available Friday night in their final preseason game of the year. The 25-year-old point guard had been tending to a left thumb injury that had kept him out through Toronto's first four preseason games.

Quickley, starting a five-year, $175-million (U.S.) contract, could return from a thumb injury and play in Friday's final pre-season game in Brooklyn.
