Juancho Hernangomez News
Toronto Raptors forward Juancho Hernangomez (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 27-year-old will sit out after spraining his ankle during Saturday's contest. The hope is that this will only be a one-game absence for Hernangomez. In the meantime, Thaddeus Young should see additional playing time. However, he's not a great streaming option with a majority of this roster healthy.
Toronto Raptors forward/center Juancho Hernangomez sprained his right ankle in Saturday's battle with the Magic and had to exit the game after logging only five minutes. Fortunately, his x-rays came back negative and it's possible that Hernangomez will be game-ready Monday versus Boston. The team officially regards him as day-to-day. Hernangomez broke into the rotation last month, and he has been a decent bench contributor for the team, averaging 4.4 points and 4.1 rebounds. If Hernangomez can't recover in time for Monday's game, Chris Boucher and Thaddeus Young are in line to log a few more minutes.
Toronto Raptors power forward Juancho Hernangomez led all scorers with a 27-point outing for Spain in Sunday's Gold Medal Game of EuroBasket against France. Hernangomez claimed gold alongside his brother, Willy, who was named MVP of the tournament. Juancho is entering his first year with Toronto, having played sparingly en route to averaging 3.3 PPG for Boston, San Antonio and Utah last season. The 26-year-old is not immediately expected to factor into the Raptors' frontcourt plans, but his strong summer performance is indicative of his ability to score when given enough minutes.
The Toronto Raptors have agreed to terms on a one-year deal with forward Juancho Hernangomez. He was recently waived by the Utah Jazz, but it didn't take long for Hernangomez to find a new home. The Raptors have quite a few long wings, but Hernangomez should still get into the mix. It's highly unlikely that Hernangomez has fantasy value as long as the Raptors can stay relatively healthy. He recently became popular because of his appearance in the recent film Hustle. Hernangomez put on some impressive moves in the movie, but it's hard to imagine him making much of an impact on a real NBA court.
