Raptors' Gradey Dick Out for Season With Knee Injury

Toronto Raptors guard Gradey Dick has been shut down for the remainder of the 2024-25 season due to a right knee bone bruise sustained during a game against the Orlando Magic on March 2. Despite his injury, he finished the season averaging 14.4 points, 3.6 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 54 games, showcasing significant growth as a full-time starter. Head coach Darko Rajaković confirmed that while Dick's condition is improving, the decision to end his season is in the best interest of his recovery. With the Raptors unlikely to compete for a Play-In spot, the team is looking ahead to next season, where Dick may adjust to a bench role with the anticipated return of Brandon Ingram. The Raptors are also managing other injuries, as Scottie Barnes remains sidelined. Overall, the team is focused on rebuilding and developing its young talent for future seasons.
