Raptors' Cory Joseph: Will move back to bench Wednesday

Joseph will return to the bench for Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Rod Beard of the Detroit News reports.

Analysis:

Joseph has worked as the Raptors' starting point guard since late February with Kyle Lowry (wrist) missing extended time. However, Lowry has officially been given the green light and will rejoin the top unit, which sends Joseph to a bench role. Considering Lowry isn't expected to be on any sort of minutes restriction, Joseph's playing time will likely take a significant hit and those previously relying on him will need to look elsewhere moving forward.
