Toronto Raptors point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet (hip) has been ruled out for Thursday's contest against Denver due to continued recovery from a left hip flexor strain. VanVleet played both legs of a back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday, but shot a combined 7-for-27 over 74 combined minutes. VanVleet's absence further depletes the Raptors' dwindling wing depth, as Rodney Hood and Deandre Bembry stand to see elevated minutes. While VanVleet has continued to fire from long range -- with ...

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (hip) won't play against Oklahoma City. The 27-year-old will get to sit this one out as he works his way back to full strength from a hip flexor strain that cost him seven games.

Toronto Raptors point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet (hip) has been given the green light to get back into action Friday against Orlando, as he was removed from the team's injury report ahead of tip-off. VanVleet is set to take the floor for the first time in two weeks, which could cap his minutes, even as Toronto finds themselves immensely short-handed Friday, especially in the backcourt. In his last seven full games, VanVleet has hoisted double-digit three-point attempts in six of them, an ...

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet(hip) could make his return to the court on Friday. VanVleet is serving his one-game suspension, which indicates that he is past his hip injury. In a confusing turn of events, head coach Nick Nurse initially said that the update on VanVleet's injury was not good on Tuesday night, though he said that "he would assume" that the guard would be available for Friday's contest when asked. This is definitely a situation to monitor closely if you have VanVleet ...

Toronto Raptors point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet (hip) has been listed as unavailable for Tuesday's contest against Atlanta, marking his sixth consecutive absence. Until the team provides an update as it pertains to some kind of timetable, fantasy managers can expect him to remain out. (He also has a one-game suspension to serve upon being cleared.)

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (hip) will not play on Saturday against the Cavs. The 27-year-old has been dealing with a left hip flexor strain and does not have a return timetable. However, when he is cleared to play, he will need to serve out his sentence (one game) stemming from his involvement in Tuesday's bench-clearing melee against the Lakers. With Kyle Lowry (foot) still dealing with an infection, Malachi Flynn will likely see a hefty increase in minutes and usage against Cleveland.

He was 4-for-11 with the three-ball while completing his line with eight rebounds, four steals, and two assists. VanVleet had a pair of disappointing games last week, but he's bounced back with 50 points across his last two outings. He will look to maintain the momentum on Wednesday against a Denver team, whose defense has had a ...

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet did a little bit of everything for his team despite their 116-105 loss to Cleveland on Sunday. VanVleet poured in 23 points with seven assists, five treys, two blocks, two steals, and a rebound in 41 minutes. The shooting wasn't pretty, as he went 8-for-24 from the field and 5 of 15 from deep, though helpful fantasy stat lines like this have become a trademark for the 27-year-old. He's been particularly great in the steals column lately, as he has a combined ...
