TORONTO — The depleted Toronto Raptors got a huge boost before their game Monday night against Cleveland with the return of stars Pascal Siakam and Scottie Barnes.

Siakam missed 10 games with a strained adductor muscle.

The star forward was playing at an elite level before sustaining the injury in a game Nov. 4 at Dallas.

Siakam leads the Raptors with 24.8 points, 9.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game.

Raptors head coach Nick Nurse said Siakam will have “some limitations” on his minutes.
