Toronto Raptors head coach Nick Nurse told reporters Tuesday that guard Matt Thomas will likely miss four weeks after fracturing a finger on his left hand.
The injury occurred during the Raptors’ game against the Atlanta Hawks last Saturday and kept him out of the lineup for their win against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday.
Thomas, 25, has averaged 4.8 points and 1.1 rebounds with a 54.1 field goal percentage through 12 games this season.
Kyle Lowry, Serge Ibaka, Patrick McCaw, Stanley Johnson and Dewan Hernandez also missed Monday’s game.
Ibaka missed practice Tuesday as he continues to work his way back from a sprained ankle.
The Raptors (12-4) take the court again Wednesday at Scotiabank Arena against the New York Knicks.
