Valanciunas will not undergo surgery to repair the fracture in his left hand, Shams Charania of Yahoo Sports reports.

Analysis:

The Raptors didn't say how long Valanciunas would be out, but considering surgery would likely ended the 23-year-old's season, this has to be good news for fantasy owners. Bismack Biyombo should see an influx in minutes with Valanciunas sidelined, with Lucas Nogueira or even Patrick Peterson likely seeing additional minutes at center with the second-unit.
