EDGE Analysis

VanVleet missed the Raptors' shootaround following the birth of his daughter and while it was originally believed that he wouldn't be back in time for Tuesday's contest, that's no longer the case. Coach Casey indicated he expects VanVleet to be available as usual, so look for him to take on his typical spot providing depth in the backcourt. Over the last three games, VanVleet has played particularly well, averaging 15.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 block across 18.7 minutes.
