Collin Murray-Boyles Downgraded to Doubtful for Wednesday's Game with Knee Injury

Collin Murray-Boyles (knee) has been downgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's game against the 76ers, indicating the Raptors will likely hold him out. This absence could create opportunities for Ochai Agbaji, who is expected to return from a back issue. The 20-year-old forward signed a two-year, $12.98 million contract with the Raptors in July 2025, with a team option for 2027-28. Murray-Boyles, a former four-star recruit, showed significant growth in his two years at South Carolina, elevating his sophomore year averages to 16.8 points, 8.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.3 blocks. While he lacks a perimeter shooting touch for a small forward, his above-average strength, elite defensive feel, and instincts make him a versatile frontcourt player, despite being potentially undersized for power forward. He is projected to play more as an undersized interior presence, drawing comparisons to Grant Williams for his physicality and defensive prowess.
