Rhoden underwent surgery this week to repair a torn labrum in his right shoulder and will face a 4-to-6-month recovery, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
The third-year forward will be under contract with Toronto entering the 2025-26 season after signing a two-year, two-way deal in March. Still, his recovery from shoulder surgery will keep him out of commission for the Raptors' summer development program and potentially jeopardize his availability for the start of training camp in the fall. Between stops with the Hornets and Raptors during the 2024-25 season, Rhoden appeared in 14 games and averaged 8.4 points, 3.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists and 0.9 three-pointers in 16.2 minutes per contest.

Rhoden will miss the final game of the regular season due to a shoulder injury. The former Seton Hall standout suited up for both Charlotte and Toronto in 2024-25, though he often had a minimal role and started in only two of his 14 appearances.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Not playing Friday
Rotowire
Rhoden (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Dallas, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Rhoden will be sidelined for Friday's game due to a shoulder sprain, and he'll look to be available for the Raptors' regular-season finale against the Spurs on Sunday. Jamison Battle and A.J. Lawson should see an uptick in playing time in Rhoden's absence.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Iffy to play Friday
Rotowire
Rhoden is questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks due to a shoulder sprain, Coty Wiles of RaptorsRepublic.com reports.
The shoulder injury is a new concern for Rhoden, who has played in each of the club's last three outings. During that three-game span, the two-way player has averaged 13.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 21.3 minutes per game. If Rhoden is sidelined against Dallas, A.J. Lawson and Jamison Battle are candidates for a bump in minutes.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Team-high 23 points off bench
Rotowire
Rhoden ended Wednesday's 126-96 victory over Charlotte with 23 points (8-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), seven rebounds and four assists in 30 minutes.
Rhoden got an extended run in Wednesday's blowout win and managed to lead the Raptors with 23 points, which was his highest scoring output since March 12 against the 76ers (25 points). Rhoden has seen steady minutes over his last three outings, but his playing time could be cut dramatically if Ochai Agbaji (rest) and Ja'Kobe Walter (hip) return for Friday's game against the Mavericks.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Available Thursday
Rotowire
Rhoden (hand) is available for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
Rhoden will suit up for his second consecutive contest following an extended stay in the G League and a one-game absence due to a left hand MCP joint sprain. The 25-year-old two-way player recorded only four minutes during Tuesday's loss to Chicago, and he's unlikely to play a significant role against Portland.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Iffy to play Thursday
Rotowire
The Raptors list Rhoden as questionable for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers due to a left hand MCP joint sprain.
After an extended stay in the G League followed by a one-game absence due to the hand issue, Rhoden suited up for the Raptors in Tuesday's 137-118 loss to the Bulls. He played the final 3:59 of the blowout loss, finishing with eight points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and one assist. Rhoden didn't suffer any apparent setbacks during his time on the court, but the Raptors could be considering holding him out for maintenance purposes Thursday in the front end of a back-to-back set.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Cleared to play Tuesday
Rotowire
Rhoden (hand) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Bulls, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Rhoden has been upgraded from questionable to available Tuesday after missing Toronto's previous contest due to a sprained left hand. The two-way player hasn't made an appearance at the NBA level since March 12, so his role for Tuesday's contest is uncertain.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Questionable for Tuesday
Rotowire
Rhoden (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Bulls, Coty Wiles of RaptorsRepublic.com reports.
Rhoden is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to a sprained left hand. The two-way forward hasn't made an appearance for the Raptors since March 12, though he could receive playing time if he's cleared to suit up due to RJ Barrett (rest), Ochai Agbaji (rest), Gradey Dick (knee) and Brandon Ingram (ankle) being sidelined Tuesday.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Ruled out Sunday vs. Philly
Rotowire
Rhoden (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Rhoden has spent the past two weeks in the G League with Raptors 905 and appears to have picked up a hand injury at some point. His absence Sunday means that he is eligible to play in Toronto's final seven games of the regular season, starting with Tuesday's clash against Chicago.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Dealing with hand injury
Rotowire
Rhoden is questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers due to a left hand sprain.
Rhoden hasn't appeared in an NBA game since dropping 25 points (9-19 FG) and 12 rebounds in 43 minutes as a starter during a 118-105 win over Philadelphia on March 12. He's been operating in the G League since and recently picked up an injury, though it didn't stop him from posting 40 points (15-23 FG, 6-9 3Pt) and 12 rebounds in 45 minutes during the Raptors 905's 122-111 loss to the Delaware Blue Coats on Saturday. If Rhoden gets the green light, he could see come playing time Sunday, as Gradey Dick (knee), Jakob Poeltl (rest), Immanuel Quickley (rest) and Brandon Ingram (ankle) will all be in street clothes for this contest.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: In G League through Monday
Rotowire
Rhoden was assigned to the G League's Raptors 905 on Thursday and will be unavailable for Toronto's next three road games, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
After inking a two-way deal with Toronto on March 4, Rhoden has been active for each of the Raptors' five games since his signing. He's been a staple in the rotation for each of those contests, averaging 13.4 points, 5.2 rebounds, 1.6 three-pointers, 1.2 assists and 1.2 steals in 29.2 minutes per game. Despite his strong production, the Raptors will send Rhoden to the G League for the weekend since his two-way contract allows him to be active in just seven of the NBA club's remaining 16 games. Rhoden will thus be out for Friday's game at Utah, Sunday's game at Portland and Monday's game at Phoenix before potentially rejoining the Raptors for the final game of their road trip Thursday at Golden State. In the meantime, Rhoden will continue to stay conditioned by playing for the 905 on Saturday and Monday versus the Windy City Bulls.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Dominant in second NBA start
Rotowire
Rhoden logged 25 points (9-19 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, five assists and four steals across 43 minutes during Wednesday's 118-105 win over the 76ers.
With the Raptors riddled with injuries, Rhoden drew a second straight start while Jamison Battle made the first start of his NBA career Wednesday. While Battle struggled from the field, Rhoden rose to the occasion with a a career-high 25 points while registering the first double-double of his young career. Rhoden is eligible to play 10 more NBA games as a two-way player, but he should continue to see a healthy workload as long as multiple Raptors players -- including Scottie Barnes (hand) and Jonathan Mogbo (nose) -- are sidelined due to injuries.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Receives 20 minutes in win
Rotowire
Rhoden ended Tuesday's 114-113 win over the Magic with four points (2-5 FG, 0-3 3Pt), two rebounds and one block across 20 minutes.
Fresh off signing a two-way deal with the Raptors, Rhoden played by far the most minutes of his six appearances at the NBA level on the season. He benefited from Toronto being without six players Tuesday, but once the team is healthier, Rhoden could see most of his opportunities in the G League with the Raptors 905. Toronto has 20 games remaining on its schedule, and Rhoden is eligible to be active for just 11 of those contests.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Nets two-way deal
Rotowire
Rhoden agreed to a two-way contract with the Raptors on Tuesday, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Rhoden's 10-day contract with the Raptors expired Saturday, but the organization saw enough from the third-year forward during his brief time in the NBA and is more extended action with the G League's Raptors 905 prior to that to keep him around as one of its three two-way players. The 25-year-old will be eligible to be active for just 12 games at the NBA level for the rest of the season, so he could frequently move between Toronto and the 905.

Jared Rhoden: Hits free agency
Rotowire
Rhoden became a free agent Saturday after his 10-day contract with the Raptors expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Rhoden made one one-minute appearance with the Raptors over the course of his 10-day deal. The third-year wing had been playing for the Raptors' G League affiliate, Raptors 905, prior to signing his contract Feb. 19, so he could remain in the organization even if Toronto doesn't bring him back on a second 10-day pact.

Raptors' Jared Rhoden: Gets 10-day deal
Rotowire
Rhoden agreed to a 10-day contract with the Raptors on Wednesday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Rhoden has been a standout player for Toronto's G League affiliate, Raptors 905, since joining the club in December following a stint as a two-way player with the Hornets to begin the season. In 18 appearances with the 905, Rhoden averaged 15.9 points, 6.3 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 29.3 minutes while shooting 41.9 percent from beyond the arc. Even though he'll join the Raptors ahead of Friday's game against the Heat, Murphy relays that Rhoden could still spend some time with the 905 during the course of his 10-day deal.

Jared Rhoden: Dropped by Charlotte
Rotowire
The Hornets are expected to waive Rhoden (shoulder) on Sunday, Roderick Boone of The Charlotte Observer reports.
Rhoden will cede his two-way spot to Isaiah Wong, a second-year point guard who will help shore up the Hornets' depth in the backcourt while LaMelo Ball (calf) and Tre Mann (back) face multi-week absences. After attending training camp with the Raptors on an Exhibit 10 deal, Rhoden was waived shortly before the start of the regular season and claimed by the Hornets, who converted him to a two-way deal. He appeared in just four games with the NBA club all season and hadn't appeared in any of the G League Greensboro Swarm's last four contests while contending with a shoulder injury.

Rotowire
The Hornets transferred Rhoden to the Greensboro Swarm of the G League on Friday.
Rhoden is averaging just 1.3 points in 3.3 minutes across his three NBA appearances this season. As a two-way player, Rhoden should receive more playing time in the G League.
