Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Won't play Wednesday
Walter (hip) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
Walter missed seven consecutive contests in March while dealing with a strained right hip, and he'll sit out against Charlotte due to right hip flexor tightness. His next chance to suit up will come Friday against Dallas, which is the Raptors' penultimate game of the regular season. A.J. Lawson and Jared Rhoden are candidates for a bump in minutes due to Walter being sidelined.

Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Surpasses 20-point mark Friday
Walter had 22 points (8-14 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and three steals over 32 minutes during Friday's 117-105 loss to the Pistons.
Walter is widely expected to end the season in a starting role, as he's been part of the first unit in Toronto's last six games, and the Raptors could use the season's final games to give the rookie- and others- an expanded look. This was Walter's second-best scoring performance of the season, and he's shown some interesting things when handed more minutes. He's scored in double digits in five of those aforementioned six starts while averaging 14.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.7 steals per game.

Over his last seven appearances, Walter has emerged on the fantasy streaming radar with averages of 12.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.1 steals and 2.0 three-pointers.

The 2024 first-round pick has primarily come off the bench this season, but he has seen consistent playing time on the lowly Raptors. In 11 games this month, the 20-year-old is averaging 8.5 points and 3.7 rebounds on 43.5 percent shooting in 21.9 minutes per game.
