Key Boston Celtics forward to rest vs. Toronto Raptors
Boston is taking no chances with their health on the back end of a back-to-back.
Veteran forward Paul George, a crucial player in the Boston Celtics' recent 123-101 road victory over the Philadelphia 76ers, will not participate in their upcoming game against the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday (Nov. 11). George led the Celtics in scoring, tallying 36 points, 5 rebounds, and an assist during the previous contest. However, he will be resting due to illness, as indicated by the team's latest injury report.
This absence is likely beneficial for Boston, as they will face two key players, Scottie Barnes and Kawhi Leonard, who are also unavailable for the game. The matchup will take place in Toronto at the Scotiabank Arena, marking the final contest of a four-game road trip for the Celtics before they return to TD Garden for a two-game home series against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday (Nov. 15).
