The Toronto Raptors will be without forwards Kawhi Leonard and OG Anunoby when the team takes on the Chicago Bulls on Saturday, according to the NBA’s latest injury report.

Leonard was on the sidelines for the Raptors’ most recent game, a 117-92 blowout of the New York Knicks on Thursday.

Anunoby also missed the game against the Knicks due to concussion-like symptoms.

Leonard is averaging 27 points, 7.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists in 55 games this season, while Anunoby has produced totals of 7.1 points, 3 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 20.3 minutes per game.

Jordan Loyd will also miss the team’s game against Chicago as he’ll be playing with the G-League’s Raptors 905.

The Raptors are currently four games behind the Milwaukee Bucks for the East’s No. 1 seed. Toronto holds a four-and-a-half-game cushion over Philadelphia for the conference’s second seed with six games left to play.
