The Toronto Raptors will remain without two starters when they return from the holiday break.
RJ Barrett (knee) and Jakob Poeltl (back) have been ruled out for Friday’s game in Washington against the Wizards, the Raptors announced Thursday.
Poeltl has been bothered by the injury most of the season. He missed Tuesday’s win over the Miami Heat.
Barrett, from Mississauga, Ont., last played Nov. 23.
Meanwhile, Collin Murray-Boyles is questionable because of an illness.
Watch the Raptors-Wizards game Friday at 7 p.m. ET on Sportsnet or Sportsnet+.
