Top Chris Boucher News

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: 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 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.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Out against Denver

    Boucher (knee) won't play in Monday's game versus Denver, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    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.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Dealing with bruised knee

    Boucher is listed as questionable for Monday's game at Denver due to a bruised right knee.

    Boucher has stepped up over the last two games with Toronto missing key pieces in Scottie Barnes (hand) and Jakob Poeltl (finger), but he could be in danger of missing the first of the Raptors' four games in the week ahead. If Boucher is cleared to play, he should make for a relatively appealing streaming option given that he's totaled 27 points, 17 rebounds, four assists and three blocks over his last two games (55 total minutes). Keep an eye out for an update at the shootaround Monday morning.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Logs 16 points from bench

    Boucher finished Saturday's 128-118 overtime loss to the Trail Blazers with 16 points (4-5 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, two assists and three blocks in 31 minutes.

    Boucher provided much-needed size and agility to the interior during the loss. Recently, he has played well off the bench during Scottie Barnes' (hand) absence, but Boucher has also dealt with his own injuries, minimizing what would have otherwise been golden opportunities with Barnes and Jakob Poeltl (finger) absent. Considering his average of 27.5 minutes over the past two games, Boucher's increased usage should continue if he can stay healthy.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Good to go against Golden State

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Questionable for Friday

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Won't play Wednesday

    Boucher (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

    Boucher isn't a consistent part of the rotation, so his absence Wednesday shouldn't impact how the minutes are distributed among Raptors frontcourt players.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Iffy due to illness

    Boucher (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game versus Dallas.

    Boucher has been a fringe rotation player for the Raptors, making just three brief appearances in February. His status doesn't carry many fantasy implications.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Re-enters rotation

    Boucher recorded 11 points (4-5 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block across 12 minutes during Monday's 138-100 loss to the Pelicans.

    Boucher was a healthy scratch in Toronto's last two contests, but he stepped in with efficient offense and active rebounding in a limited sample during Monday's blowout loss. Boucher being phased out of the rotation is an interesting storyline given the 30-year-old is the only power forward on the roster besides Scottie Barnes, but it appears that Toronto would rather allocate the minutes elsewhere at this time. Boucher will probably be pushed to the outskirts of the rotation again if Gary Trent (back), RJ Barrett (knee) and Jontay Porter (back) are cleared to suit up moving forward.

  • Raptors' Chris Boucher: Nears double-double off bench

    Boucher recorded 17 points (7-7 FG, 3-3 3Pt), nine rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 16 minutes during Sunday's 133-118 victory over the Warriors.

    Boucher has had relatively limited production off the bench for most of the year, but he's come within one rebound of a double-double in his last two appearances. He was perfect from the floor Sunday, although it's worth noting that both of his recent strong performances came in games where the score was lopsided after the first half. Across his last eight appearances, Boucher has averaged 7.1 points and 4.9 rebounds in 14.6 minutes per game.
