The Toronto Raptors will be without the services of centre Marc Gasol and forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson against the Chicago Bulls on Sunday, according to the NBA’s official injury report.

The Raptors will also be missing Norman Powell, who fractured the fourth metacarpal on his left hand during Toronto’s win against the Detroit Pistons on Friday and will be out indefinitely.

Gasol left Tuesday’s game against the Atlanta Hawks with tightness in his left hamstring. He also missed the Raptors’ wins over the Cleveland Cavaliers and Pistons. The same injury already forced him to miss 12 games this season before he returned to the Raptors’ lineup on Jan. 15

Hollis-Jefferson suffered a right ankle sprain against the San Antonio Spurs last weekend and has been sidelined for three straight games.
