OG Anunoby has not played since undergoing an emergency appendectomy in mid-April. The 21-year-old was cleared to play last week after fully overcoming the injury, and is available for selection. However, Nick Nurse appears content with his current rotation, and Anunoby is unlikely to take to the court during the Finals.

Fred VanVleet left the court in Game 4 after being hit in the face by Shaun Livingston's elbow. The contact was enough to draw blood from near his right eye, and the backup point guard also lost a tooth. However, VanVleet managed to avoid a concussion, and while he will be required to wear a mouth guard, he will be active during tonight's game.
