Toronto Raptors center Rasho Nesterovic will miss one to two weeks with a grade two sprain of his right ankle, the team announced Sunday.
Nesterovic injured the ankle during the Raptors’ loss to Utah Wednesday. The 7-foot Slovenian, in his 10th NBA season, has averaged three points and 4.8 rebounds in eight games this season, starting three times and seeing 13.5 minutes of floor action per contest.
Nesterovic will not join the Raptors on their road trip to Dallas on Tuesday, and Memphis on Wednesday.
For his career, Nesterovic has averaged 6.8 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.3 blocked shots per game with the Timberwolves, Spurs and Raptors.

Since Rasho is our best interior defender (yes, I know how sad that is), we’re going to have to at least TRY to defend inside now.
