The Toronto Raptors are at home on Friday night as they host the Cleveland Cavaliers in Game 6 of their first-round playoff series.
For the Raptors, they enter Friday’s game trailing 2-3 in the series after losing on the road to the Cavaliers in Game 5 on Wednesday night.

While the Raptors are looking to pick up a victory in Game 6 on Friday night to extend the series, they may be without two of their key players due to injuries.

If Ingram is sidelined, A.J. Lawson and Jamal Shead could both be in line for increased roles.
The Raptors have ruled out Immanuel Quickley due to a right hamstring strain that has sidelined him to begin the playoffs and he is expected to miss the remainder of the first round.
With Quickley still sidelined, Ja’Kobe Walter could continue to start in his place and have a larger role.
The good news for the Raptors is that Scottie Barnes is not listed on their injury report after suffering a right quad contusion in Wednesday’s loss as he is good to go for Friday’s matchup.
Fans can catch Game 6 of the first-round series between the Cavaliers and Raptors from Toronto on Friday night at 7:30 p.m. ET on Amazon Prime Video.
