Poeltl was returning from an undisclosed illness that sidelined him all week.

Achiuwa missed all three of the Raptors’ pre-season games with a strained groin.

Porter could play in his first NBA game in nearly a year after he had surgery on his left foot to repair a dislocated toe.

Toronto head coach Darko Rajakovic says he plans to ease Porter into playing time given his extended time away from the game.
