McCaw will start Friday's game against the Wizards, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Raptors are dealing with a myriad of injuries, so McCaw will be thrust into the starting five. In the four games that he's seen 20-plus minutes this season, he's averaged 3.8 points, 2.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists in 25.3 minutes.

McCaw finished with zero points (0-2 FG) in 10 minutes during Wednesday's 112-92 loss to the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
McCaw returned to the lineup following a lengthy absence with a knee injury. This was just his third appearance thus far this season, and McCaw is unlikely to warrant attention across most formats.

McCaw (knee) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Michael Grange of Rogers Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Raptors initially listed McCaw as "out" in the initial report for Wednesday's game, but he'll apparently be available for the first time since early November. McCaw could be thrust into some minutes right away with Fred VanVleet (knee) sidelined Wednesday.

McCaw (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Clippers.
EDGE Analysis
McCaw has been sidelined since Nov. 2, and he's not quite ready to make his return yet following left knee surgery. His next chance to play arrives Saturday against the Nets.

McCaw (knee) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the 76ers.
EDGE Analysis
After he took contact in Saturday's practice, McCaw looks to advanced from the week-to-week to day-to-day stage of his recovery from the left knee surgery he required in early November. The Raptors will likely want to see McCaw turn in another practice or two before clearing him to game action, so he's probably unlikely to suit up in the second half of the back-to-back set Monday in Chicago. Wednesday's game against the Clippers may represent the most realistic target for McCaw to resume suiting up for Toronto.

McCaw (knee) was cleared to return to contact-based drills in practice Saturday, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
This was a nice improvement for McCaw, who will be able to return to contact-based drills in the Raptors' next practice session, this upcoming Thursday. He's battled the fallout from a left knee surgery throughout the season and has been held to just two games. Once he's able to string together a couple of practices, and presumably not suffer any setbacks, it will become more realistic for McCaw to return to game action.

McCaw (knee) was able to participate in some live work in Monday's practice but remains a ways away from returning, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCaw has missed all but two games this season as he continues to recover from knee surgery. While it's an encouraging sign, McCaw still doesn't have a clear timetable for return and will likely miss another couple of weeks.

McCaw (knee) is pain-free and moving well following early-November knee surgery, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis

McCaw (knee) will be reevaluated in one month after undergoing surgery to remove a benign mass on the back of his left knee, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
McCaw has been dealing with the issue since mid-October and recently opted for surgery. A more concrete timetable for his return should come into focus as he gets further along in his recovery, but the early expectation is that he'll remain sidelined at least until mid-December.

McCaw (knee) will undergo surgery and is expected to miss "several weeks," Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
A left knee injury has been bothering McCaw since mid-October. Though he's appeared in two regular-season games, it's apparently been decided that surgery is the best route. His timetable for a return is somewhat vague, and updates will likely be provided as he hits milestones in his recovery.
