Raptors wing Gradey Dick will miss the remainder of the season due to a right knee injury that has kept him sidelined since March 2, head coach Darko Rajakovic confirmed Friday (via TSN.ca’s Josh Lewenberg).

The team wants to shut him down with just 10 days left in the season.

Dick, a 2023 lottery pick, took a step forward in his second year, averaging 14.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.8 assists over 54 starts.

Though his shooting percentages dipped slightly, he remained a key rotation piece, playing 29.4 minutes per game.

He’s under contract for $4.99 million next season, and Toronto is expected to exercise his $7.13 million option for 2026–27, making him extension-eligible in 2026.

Rajakovic also provided an update on Brandon Ingram, who is recovering from a left ankle sprain.

Ingram has increased on-court work and may be cleared for contact soon, though with only four games left, his Raptors debut this season remains uncertain.

Toronto acquired and extended him with 2025–26 in mind.

As for Scottie Barnes, the franchise forward is sitting out Friday’s game with a right hand contusion, but there’s no sign the injury will sideline him long-term.
