Raptors' Dick out at least 2 weeks with bone bruises

Toronto Raptors guard Gradey Dick will miss at least two weeks due to bone bruises sustained as a result of his hyperextended right knee, the team announced Tuesday.

Dick suffered the hyperextension during Toronto's 104-102 win over the Orlando Magic on Friday. The Raptors had already ruled him out of Tuesday's rematch.

The Kansas product has significantly jumped in his second professional season, nearly doubling his scoring rate from 8.5 points per game to 14.4. Dick has also entrenched himself in Darko Rajakovic's opening five, starting in all 54 of his appearances and playing just under 30 minutes per contest.

Tuesday's game at Orlando is the Raptors' last away matchup before returning to Toronto for a four-game set through March 12. They then play six of their next seven on the road again, beginning with a four-game trip out West.

At 19-42, Toronto sits five games off the Eastern Conference's final play-in berth occupied by the Chicago Bulls. However, it would have to vault the Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers to get in.
