Carton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves. Carton continues to miss time with an ankle injury he suffered during G League action. Even when cleared to suit up, he likely won't have a path to NBA minutes, especially with Scottie Barnes (eye) and Immanuel Quickley (elbow) nearing returns.

Carton (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Timberwolves. Carton continues to miss time with an ankle injury he suffered during G League action. Even when cleared to suit up, he likely won't have a path to NBA minutes, especially with Scottie Barnes (eye) and Immanuel Quickley (elbow) nearing returns.
The Raptors list Carton as out for Monday's game against the Pacers with a right ankle sprain. Carton has been held out of game action since last Monday, when he played 33 minutes for the G League's Raptors 905 in a 122-117 loss to the College Park Skyhawks. He didn't play in either of the 905's subsequent two games, however, presumably due to the ankle injury. Carton is now back with the parent club, but it's unclear when he might be ready to resume playing in games.
Carton recorded seven points (3-6 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three assists, one rebound and a steal across 19 minutes during Sunday's 125-98 preseason win over the Wizards. Carton missed 20 games to close the 2023-24 campaign due to a right ankle sprain, but he returned to action to kick off the preseason. Carton appeared in just four games last season, averaging 2.8 points, 1.0 rebounds and 0.8 assists in 9.0 minutes per contest. It figures to be an uphill battle for the 23-year-old pro to see a significant role this season.
Carton (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Heat, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports. Carton will miss his 20th straight contest Sunday due to a right ankle sprain. The 23-year-old guard will end the 2023-24 season averaging 2.8 points and 1.0 rebounds in 9.0 minutes across four appearances.
Carton (ankle) won't play in Friday's game versus the Heat. Carton's absence streak will extend to 19 games Friday due to a right ankle sprain. His last chance to suit up this season is Sunday's rematch with Miami.
Carton (ankle) will not play Wednesday against the Nets, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports. Carton has been sidelined since March 5 and remains without a timetable for a return.
Carton (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pacers, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Carton hasn't played since March 5 due to a right ankle sprain. His next chance to suit up will come Wednesday in Brooklyn.
Carton (ankle) won't play in Sunday's game versus the Wizards. Carton's absence streak will extend to 16 games Sunday while dealing with a right ankle sprain. At this point, it seems unlikely that Carton will suit up again this season.
