Raptors' Bruce Brown: Ruled out for Wednesday
Rotowire
Brown will not play Wednesday against the Nets due to right knee injury management.
Wednesday's game is the second leg of a back-to-back set, so the Raptors will hold Brown out after he played Sunday and Tuesday following a 31-game absence to begin the campaign. In his first two games back, Brown played well with averages of 9.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.0 steals in 19.5 minutes. Toronto's rotation is difficult to predict for Wednesday with RJ Barrett (illness), Immanuel Quickley (elbow) and Gradey Dick (hamstring) all listed as questionable.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Scores 12 points in season debut
Rotowire
Brown (knee) supplied 12 points (6-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, one assist and one steal across 19 minutes during Sunday's 136-107 loss to the Hawks.
In his season debut following offseason knee surgery, Brown made an immediate impact off Toronto's bench with a double-digit scoring output. The versatile 28-year-old wing fell just shy of 20 minutes, and it's reasonable for fantasy managers to expect Brown's playing time to hover around this range for the time being until he gets his legs fully back under him.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Remains out Monday
Rotowire
Brown (knee) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Pistons.
Though Brown has been out all season after undergoing arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in late September, the versatile wing looks to be on the cusp of making his 2024-25 debut. The Raptors are attributing his absence Monday to "return to competition reconditioning," which means he may need to get only one or two more practices under his belt before he's ready to play in games. After Monday's contest, Toronto will wrap up its road trip with visits to New Orleans on Wednesday and Miami on Friday.

Rotowire
Brown is listed as out for Sunday's game versus the Cavaliers due to returning to playing condition, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Brown has yet to suit up this season due to a knee issue, but his injury designation change indicates that he is nearing a return to action. While it would be surprising for Brown to suit up Monday against Detroit, Wednesday's matchup with New Orleans is a more realistic target for a return.

Raptors' Bruce Brown: Practicing fully, needs to ramp up
Rotowire
Brown (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, but he's expected to require some additional ramp-up time before he's cleared to make his season debut, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Brown has been sidelined since shortly before training camp after he underwent arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in September. Though he seems to have avoided any complications in his recovery, Brown will probably need to get in a few more practices under his belt until the Raptors are comfortable enough with where he's at from a conditioning standpoint to make him available for games. Brown will most likely remain sidelined for the Raptors' Sunday/Monday road back-to-back set in Cleveland and Detroit, but a return later next week could be plausible. After being acquired from the Pacers last January, Brown made 34 appearances (11 starts) for Toronto to close out the 2023-24 season and averaged 9.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 0.7 steals and 0.6 three-pointers in 26.0 minutes in those contests.
