Jamal Shead - Probable for Sunday Shead is probable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a shoulder injury, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact The extent of the shoulder injury is unknown, but the fact that Shead is carrying a probable tag suggests the rookie should be able to suit up and log his regular workload off the bench.

Jonathan Mogbo - Iffy for Sunday Mogbo (nose) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Trail Blazers, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Mogbo has missed each of the last five Toronto games due to a nose injury, and it's uncertain if he'll be able to suit up for this contest. The questionable tag at least gives the rookie a chance of returning to the hardwood, but a decision on his status will be made closer to Sunday's 6 p.m. ET tipoff. Jamison Battle could see a larger role in the frontcourt if Mogbo ends up being ruled out.

If Agbaji ends up being ruled out, then A.J. Lawson and Jamison Battle are among the players who could see more minutes in a depleted Raptors roster.
