Jakob Poeltl Out Sunday for Back Injury Management
Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (back) is out Sunday against Brooklyn as the Raptors continue to manage his back issue. The veteran big has been highly efficient this season, averaging 11.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.6 blocks in 25.5 minutes on 73.7 percent shooting. He anchors rebounds and field goal percentage, yet his overall ceiling stays modest in standard category formats. His absence pushes Toronto toward more small-ball lineups and creates short-term streaming value. Sandro Mamukelashvili, who delivered 23 points and seven boards in the last outing, becomes a deep-league option, while Collin Murray-Boyles (knee) could absorb frontcourt minutes if cleared. Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram should see slight usage bumps around the interior.
