TORONTO — Forward OG Anunoby is expected back in the Raptors lineup on Sunday for Game 2 of the NBA Finals as Toronto hosts the Golden State Warriors.

Anunoby has missed the entire post-season after having an appendectomy on April 12 — one day before Toronto began its first-round series against the Orlando Magic.

Raptors head coach Nick Nurse announced ahead of Thursday’s Game 1 that he expects Anunoby will be active for the second game of the best-of-seven series.

The 21-year-old Anunoby confirmed Wednesday that his appendix had burst before having surgery, then an infection complicated the aftermath of the procedure.
