TORONTO — Scottie Barnes is back in the lineup for the Toronto Raptors tonight.

The 23-year-old Barnes has been struggling with a finger joint contusion.

Toronto head coach Darko Rajakovic announced before the game that Barnes would be playing, however.

Barnes is averaging 19.2 points, 7.7 rebounds and 5.9 assists per game this season.
