| Boucher (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Heat, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports. The Scoop:Boucher last played March 9, when he recorded 16 points and eight rebounds across 31 minutes in a road loss to the Trail Blazers. The big man missed Toronto's final 18 contests, and he finished the campaign with averages of 6.4 points, 4.1 rebounds and 0.5 blocks per game across 50 appearances off the bench. From a statistical perspective, this was Boucher's worst year since the 2018-19 campaign, his second season in the NBA. Apr 13 9:07 ET - | ||||||||
| Remains out indefinitely Boucher (knee) won't play Wednesday against the Nets, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports. The Scoop: Boucher will miss his 16th consecutive game Wednesday while he continues to recover from the partial MCL tear in his right knee. The Raptors haven't indicated that Boucher has resumed on-court work, so he'll most likely miss the team's remaining two games of the season after Wednesday. Apr 10 4:50 ET |
| Out indefinitely Boucher (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Lakers and remains out indefinitely, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. The Scoop: Boucher suffered a partial MCL tear in his right knee in early March and doesn't have a return timetable. It wouldn't be surprising if Boucher misses the rest of the 2023-24 regular season. Apr 1 8:56 ET |
| Sustains MCL damage to knee The Raptors announced Monday that Boucher suffered a partial MCL tear in his right knee in Saturday's 128-118 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers and will undergo further testing in the coming days, Kayla Grey of TSN reports. Boucdher is without a timeline for a return. The Scoop: The Raptors initially listed Boucher as questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Nuggets with a bruised right knee, but initial tests evidently revealed a more severe injury. Though Boucher is expected to recover from the knee issue without requiring surgery, even a minor tear would likely entail a multi-week rest-and-rehab period. Given that Toronto sits at 23-41 on the season entering Monday's contest, the team likely won't look to rush the 31-year-old back from the injury, so he could be at risk of missing the rest of the season. Boucher had recently resurfaced in the rotation and averaged 13.5 points, 8.5 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 blocks in 27.5 minutes over the past two contests, but his upcoming absence likely paves the way for Jontay Porter to slot back in as the primary backup to starting center Kelly Olynyk.

| Out against Denver Boucher (knee) won't play in Monday's game versus Denver, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports. The Scoop: The Raptors are expected to be shorthanded Monday, as Boucher joins Gary Trent (groin), Immanuel Quickley (hip), Jakob Poeltl (finger), Scottie Barnes (hand) and D.J. Carton (ankle) on the sideline. Kelly Olynyk will likely play significant minutes as Toronto's starting center, while two-way player Jontay Porter could reclaim a rotation spot as Olynyk's primary backup. Mar 11 6:14 ET |
