Toronto Raptors guard Patrick McCaw will expected to see some playing time during Sunday's scrimmage. He sat out of Friday's win over the Houston Rockets, but is set to make his Orlando debut on Sunday. The Raptors have depth at the guard spot, so it'll be interesting to see what head coach Nick Nurse does with his rotations. There is a good chance that McCaw has little to no fantasy value until the seeding games begin.
