Ja’Kobe Walter, RJ Barrett, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl will start Friday’s game against the Pelicans.
The Raptors are once again without Immanuel Quickley, but it will not be Jamal Shead who replaces him in the starting lineup. Walter will be the fifth starter, which likely means that Ingram and Barnes will have the ball in their hands more as playmakers for others.
