Raptors' DeMarre Carroll: Not expected to play Tuesday

Carroll may sit out Tuesday's game against the Cavaliers for further rest, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports.

Analysis:

Carroll was rested for Saturday's matchup with the Knicks, and it looks like there's a chance he may again be held out Tuesday, as he didn't participate in the team's morning shootaround. It's unclear if Carroll is experiencing recurring soreness in his right knee, which torpedoed most of his first season with the Raptors, but an update should be available prior to game time. In the event Carroll sits, the Raptors would likely hand Norman Powell a second straight start at small forward.
