Fred VanVleet has officially been ruled out for Monday’s Game 5 against Philadelphia as reported by CTV Toronto. (CTV Toronto on Twitter)
Fantasy Impact:
Fred VanVleet will miss Game 5 as he continues to treat a strained left hip flexor he suffered in Game 4. VanVleet suffered the strain sometime in the first half and did not return after halftime. Scotty Barnes and Gary Trent Jr will handle the lion’s share of the backcourt duties Monday in Philadelphia. This is obviously a situation to monitor should Toronto (minus FVV) manage to extend this series and force a Game 6 Thursday in Toronto.
