According to Marc Stein, a postponement occurred because some of Toronto's emergency signees from the G League Showcase in Vegas had to go right into health and safety protocols.

Raptors have eight main team players in COVID protocols: Precious Achiuwa, Scottie Barnes, Dalano Banton, Malachi Flynn, Pascal Siakam, Gary Trent Jr., Fred VanVleet, and OG Anunoby.

Bulls are also strongly affected by the virus, having six players sidelined: Ayo Dosunmu, Alize Johnson, Stanley Johnson, Derrick Jones Jr., Zach LaVine, and Matt Thomas.

The Raptors (14-15) are expected to return to action Sunday on the road against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

The Bulls (19-10) come back to action Sunday versus the visiting Indiana Pacers.
