  18H ago • By RotoWire

  Walter (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Lakers, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports. Walter has yet to make an appearance for the Raptors this season as he continues to recover from an AC joint sprain in his right shoulder, but after getting in some practice time in the G League earlier this week, the rookie first-round pick cold be ready to make his NBA debut Friday. The Raptors are currently without four other rotation players due to injury, so Walter could have the opportunity to see some minutes off the bench whenever he gets the green light to play.

  Coach Darko Rajakovic said Monday that Walter (shoulder) is a week to 10 days away from being cleared for full-contact portions of practice, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports. Walter participated in some parts of Monday's practice but still has multiple hurdles to clear before returning to game action. The rookie missed the entire preseason schedule due to the shoulder injury, so even when he's cleared to suit up, Walter likely won't factor into Toronto's early-season rotation.
