Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Raptors could exercise caution with Brown's knee. The Raptors are expected to be very shorthanded, so if Brown does get the green light, he could see a bump in usage.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Out for remainder of game
Rotowire
Brown won't return to Tuesday's game versus the Lakers due to right knee soreness. He will end the contest with five points (2-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, two steals and one assist in 28 minutes.
Tuesday marks the front end of a back-to-back set, so even if Brown's knee injury doesn't prove to be too serious, he could struggle to gain clearance for Wednesday's contest in Minnesota. Brown is averaging 28.5 minutes per game over his last 11 outings with Toronto, but with both RJ Barrett (personal) and Immanuel Quickley (personal) making their respective returns from multi-game absences, Brown's playing time could take a hit moving forward once he's healthy.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Nears 20 points in starting lineup
Rotowire
Brown posted 18 points (7-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), six assists, four rebounds and two steals over 34 minutes in Sunday's 135-120 loss to Philadelphia.
Brown got the starting nod Sunday with Ochai Agbaji (hip) inactive, connecting on a team-high-tying mark from three to go along with a half-dozen assist and coming up two points shy of the 20-point mark to boost Toronto offensively. Brown has posted 18 or more points in six games this season, adding six or more assists in two of those contests. If RJ Barrett (conditioning) and/or Immanuel Quickley (conditioning) return Tuesday against the Lakers, Brown would likely take on a reduced role.

Rotowire
Brown (knee) provided 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds and three assists across 38 minutes during Monday's 125-119 loss to the Nuggets.
Making his return from a four-game absence due to a knee injury, Brown slotted into the starting lineup for the depleted Raptors and delivered his first double-double of the season. With Scottie Barnes (hand) perhaps out for the season and with Gary Trent (groin) and Immanuel Quickley (hip) also currently dealing with issues, there could be plenty of minutes available for Brown over the next couple weeks, provided he's able to stay on the court.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Won't play Tuesday
Rotowire
Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Brown's role has diminished since the All-Star break, and he'll now miss a second straight game due to right knee inflammation. Ochai Agbaji started in Brown's absence Sunday and played 33 minutes, while Jordan Nwora and D.J. Carton factored into the rotation off the bench. Brown's next chance to suit up will come Thursday in Phoenix, but at this point, he doesn't have much fantasy value in standard leagues.
