Immanuel Quickley is back in the Toronto Raptors lineup tonight against the Boston Celtics after missing two games with a tight right hamstring. Collin Murray-Boyles also returned for Toronto, giving the club two more available bodies for a game that arrives with the Raptors sitting at 5-5.
Quickley’s return matters because Toronto has been trying to piece together its rotation without several key pieces. He had been out since the hamstring issue surfaced, and the team now gets him back on the floor for a matchup that can use every available guard and creator it has.
Quickley’s presence does not erase the absences around him. Scottie Barnes was still set to miss his third game with a strained left groin, while Kawhi Leonard remained out after missing nine games with swelling in his left knee. That leaves Toronto with one starter back, another rotation piece back, and two notable names still unavailable as the Raptors try to steady themselves against Boston.
Murray-Boyles’ return adds another layer after he missed Monday’s 118-102 loss to the Memphis Grizzlies with an undisclosed illness. The Raptors have not said how much Quickley will be asked to do in his first game back, but his return at least changes the shape of the night. For Toronto, the immediate question is not whether he is available. It is how quickly he can help a team that needs him while the absences keep piling up.
The report by The Canadian Press was first published Nov. 11, 2026.
