OG Anunoby, a forward with the Toronto Raptors, might make a comeback on Sunday when his team plays the Detroit Pistons.
OG Anunoby, a forward with the Toronto Raptors, is expected to start against the Detroit Pistons. Anunoby, who has missed the previous three games due to a cut right finger, is presently listed as probable to play in Sunday’s match.
Early last week, the seventh-year professional was hurt while performing housework. The cut needed stitches, as coach Darko Rajakovic disclosed on Thursday. Anunoby has only been using his left hand when working on the practice field in recent days.
With Rajakovic leading Toronto’s pass-heavy, movement-based offense, Anunoby is having the best season of his career and continuing to establish himself as one of the NBA’s best on-ball defenders. With a career-high amount of three-pointers made, he is averaging 16.4 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals while shooting an impressive 66.7% and 39.3% from beyond the arc.
Anunoby is hiding the fact that he is scoring more points per possession than in any other season of his career by playing only 31.4 minutes each game.
