Raptors Trent Jr., Young will play in Game 2 against 76ers

After being considered question marks to play earlier in the day, the Toronto Raptors will have both Gary Trent Jr. and Thaddeus Young in the lineup for Game 2 against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night, bolstering their rotation just ahead of tipoff.

Trent Jr. (non-COVID illness) and Young (thumb) both played in Game 1 before being listed as doubtful for Game 2.

Young had said he planned to tape up his thumb and try to play.

Their return bodes well for a Raptors club that enters Game 2 trailing the series 1-0, and will be forced to play without star rookie Scottie Barnes, who sustained an ankle sprain in Game 1.
