DeRozan (groin) will play Wednesday against the Hornets, Eric Smith of SportsNet reports.

Analysis:

DeRozan sat out Tuesday due to a sore groin but will return Wednesday as the Raptors look to capture the third spot in the East. Since they hold the tiebreaker with Chicago, they'll need a Bulls loss, coupled with a win of their own, to have a chance to move up.
