ROTATION: Starters -- Point guard Jose Calderon, Shooting guard DeMar DeRozan, Small forward Hedo Turoglu, Power forward Chris Bosh, Center Andrea Bargnani. Bench -- Guard Jarrett Jack, Guard Marco Belinelli, Forward Amir Johnson, Forward Sonny Weems. PLAYER NOTES: --F Chris Bosh, with 32 points and 17 rebounds, had his team-best 10th double-double in 12 games for Toronto against Utah on Wednesday.
--C Andrea Bargnani is often chided -- rightfully so -- for bad rebounding numbers for a 7-footer. He had one of his best rebounding games of his career against Utah on Wednesday with 11 boards, one off his career high.
--G DeMar DeRozan, a 20-year-old rookie, was always going to experience some ups and downs. It goes with his youth and inexperience. This week's a perfect example. After a season-best 17 points in Denver on Tuesday, he had two points in 15 minutes against Utah on Wednesday.
MEDICAL WATCH:
--G/F Antoine Wright (ankle) sat out Wednesday's game in Utah and is being listed as day-to-day.
--F Reggie Evans (sprained left foot) missed the last two weeks of the preseason and remains on the shelf. A return date is unknown.
