Availability
Sandro Mamukelashvili (rib) is active for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls.
Fantasy Impact
The big man is going to be active on Thursday. He was initially uncertain to play due to a rib injury, but it doesn't seem to be much more than a minor issue at this point. He will play a limited role with Jakob Poeltl now back in the lineup for the Raptors.
Sandro Mamukelashvili is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls.
Fantasy Impact
Mamukelashvili is dealing with a right rib contusion, putting him at risk of missing the Toronto Raptors’ first game back from the All-Star break. If he is ruled out, Jamison Battle or Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) could pick up some extra minutes.
Sandro Mamukelashvili scored 17 points (6-9 FG, 3-5 3P, 2-2 FT) with four rebounds, an assist, and a steal in the Raptors’ 122-104 win over the Pacers.
Fantasy Impact
Mamukelashvili has been on a nice run during the Raptors last four games, scoring at least 14 points with four rebounds as well as nearly two stocks in each. He should remain a solid fantasy asset for the Raptors as they look to contend in the East.
Mamukelashvili finished with 22 points on 8-of-14 shooting, nine rebounds, four assists and three three-pointers in Wednesday's victory over Sacramento. He converted three of four free-throw attempts and drew the start for the contest.
Fantasy Impact
The scoring performance came within two points of Mamukelashvili's season-high. He entered the starting lineup Wednesday after coming off the bench Tuesday despite Jakob Poeltl (back) and Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) both being sidelined. Poeltl has returned to Toronto for a back examination, while Murray-Boyles remains day-to-day heading into Friday's game in Portland.
Sandro Mamukelashvili scored 14 points (5-8 FG, 4-4 3PT), grabbed 12 rebounds, and handed out four assists in the Raptors' 145-127 win over the Warriors on Tuesday.
