After a brief stint at full health, the Toronto Raptors will once again be missing a key piece of their starting lineup.
Standout wing RJ Barrett has been declared out for Tuesday’s game against his former team — the New York Knicks — due to concussion protocol, according to Sportsnet’s Blake Murphy.
Barrett, 24, stayed down on the court momentarily when he banged his head following a layup Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers.
The Raptors took a timeout to allow Barrett to be examined on the bench, but he ultimately remained in the game.
The Mississauga, Ont., native is averaging 21.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 5.7 assists this season, all career highs.
Ochai Agbaji is a probable candidate to slot into the starting lineup in Barrett’s place.
