VanVleet had 23 points and six assists in 40 minutes in the 123-114 overtime win against the Thunder last Wednesday while Lin had six points off the bench in 15 minutes.

Lowry left Monday night’s 128-92 win against the Knicks with right ankle soreness after he got tangled up with Mitchell Robinson in the third quarter.
Lowry still dealing with the sprained right ankle. However, at even money, I don’t mind sweating his minutes again tonight.The Toronto Raptors announced that Kyle Lowry is out for the second half of the home-and-home with the Oklahoma City Thunder. Ideally, he knocks down two 3s in the first quarter and gives us an early cash. Love will most likely play in the first and third quarters once again tonight. In Game 4, Love went 3-for-5 on 3s, and he knocked two on consecutive Miami possessions in the second half.

The rest may just come to Aaron Gordon, who’s coming off a postseason high of 27 points. If Murray gets half of his assists to Jokic again, he will only need four or five assists to the rest of his teammates to hit this line.
