 Jose Calderon-G- RaptorsFeb. 7 - 3:27 pm et
Jose Calderon (ankle) returned to action Sunday against the Kings, but managed just seven points on 3-of-7 shooting (including a three) with one rebound, two assists, and one steal in 20 minutes.
Starter Jarret Jack scored seven points on 3-of-8 shooting with five rebounds and nine assists, and Antoine Wright got into the act with 16 points on 6-of-7 shooting with two treys, five rebounds, and four assists, but he won't be that good very often. Overall, Jack and Jose will have their value in deep leagues, but it's a bit of a quagmire in the backcourt right now.
 Marco Belinelli-G - Raptors Feb. 3 - 10:10 pm et  

Marco Belinelli went back to the bench on Wednesday with Antoine Wright getting the starting nod against the Nets.
Belinelli, who had 21 points on Tuesday, played just 18 minutes and scored six points tonight. With regular starters Hedo Turkoglu and DeMar DeRozan on the verge of returning from injuries, Belinelli is not worth picking up.
 Antoine Wright-G/F - Raptors Feb. 3 - 10:03 pm et

Antoine Wright got a start in place of injured Hedo Turkoglu on Wednesday and had 18 points, seven rebounds and three 3-pointers on 6-of-10 shooting.
It was a nice night for Wright, but don't get too excited. Turkoglu is expected to be back in the lineup for the Raptors on Sunday against the Kings.
 Antoine Wright-G/F - Raptors Feb. 2 - 10:14 pm et

Raptors swing man Antoine Wright didn't do much in extended minutes on Tuesday, finishing with four points, two rebounds and four assists in 33 minutes.
He played capable defense but simply couldn't hit a shot, going 0-of-8 from the field. He is averaging 17 minutes this season, but played more with both DeMar DeRozan and Hedo Turkoglu sidelined.
 Marco Belinelli-G - Raptors Feb. 2 - 6:06 pm et  

Marco Belinelli will start in place of Hedo Turkoglu (orbital bone) on Tuesday night.
Coach Jay Triano said that he likes what Antoine Wright brings off the bench, so he's going to leave him there. Belinelli can match up with the Pacers' small lineup and will provide owners with 3-pointers. However, Turkoglu will be back within one or two games, so by the time you add Belinelli it will probably be too late for any production.

 Hedo Turkoglu-G/F - Raptors Feb. 2 - 3:50 pm et  

Hedo Turkoglu (fractured orbital bone) won't play against the Pacers on Tuesday night.
Turkoglu has been fitted with a mask, something that will surely take some getting used to. As long as he's comfortable, beat writer Doug Smith thinks he'll play on Wednesday. Antoine Wright will likely get the vast majority of small forward minutes tonight with DeMar DeRozan (ankle) also out. Marco Belinelli could also see a bump in minutes as the Pacers are expected to go small.
