Raptors' Jonathan Mogbo: Quiet in return
Jonathan Mogbo (nose) notched two points (1-7 FG), six rebounds and two assists in 27 minutes during Monday's 129-89 loss to the Suns.Mogbo missed five straight games due to a broken nose before being cleared to play ahead of Sunday's 105-102 loss to the Trail Blazers. He didn't crack the rotation in that contest, but with Ochai Agbaji resting in the second half of a back-to-back set after recently missing time due to an injury of his own, Mogbo moved into the starting five. Although Mogbo's production left a lot to be desired, the fact he played 27 minutes was an encouraging sign that he could be in store for meaningful playing time down the stretch.
