After a dramatic Game 3 victory Saturday, the Toronto Raptors might be getting back one of their top players for Monday's Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Final against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Centre Jonas Valanciunas was upgraded to a game-time decision Monday morning, according to ESPN's Brian Windhorst.
The seven-footer was listed as doubtful by the team Sunday. TSN 1050's Josh Lewenberg is reporting his chances to play are worse than 50-50.
The 23-year-old has not played since spraining his right ankle during Game 3 of the second round against the Miami Heat.
Valanciunas was playing some of the best basketball of his career this postseason before the injury, averaging 15 points, 12.1 rebounds and 1.4 blocks in 10 games.
In his absence, Bismack Biyombo has stepped in and has been a major contributor, especially in Saturday's Game 3 victory at the Air Canada Centre. The Raps need a win in Game 4 to tie the series at two.
