Raptors Injury News: A.J. Lawson good to go for Game 4

Toronto started the series down two games to none and came away with a huge 126 to 104 win at home during the most recent outing in the best-of-seven series.

A.J. Lawson surprisingly has featured in all three contests so far after spending the majority of the season with the G-League affiliate Raptors 905. He’s played a total of 20 minutes so far across the three games, averaging just 1.3 points and 1.3 assists per game across 14.3 percent shooting from the field while having a perfect rate at the free-throw line so far.

During the regular season, Lawson featured in 24 games for the Raptors, just two shy of last season’s mark, but his minutes dropped to just 9.4 per game as he averaged 4.2 points and 1.8 rebounds per game with much better shooting compared to his small sample size in the playoffs as he shot 43.6 percent from the field and an impressive 42.2 percent from beyond the arc.

The only injured player for this game is Immanuel Quickley, as he was ruled out for the rest of the series, as his hamstring injury got re-aggravated during rehab recently. The Cleveland Cavaliers have had a clean slate for the injury list pretty much the whole series, apart from game 1 when Thomas Bryant wasn’t available.
