Posted May 23, 2016 7:00 am
TORONTO (AP) - Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas is active for Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals against Cleveland on Monday night, but will not start against the Cavaliers.
Valanciunas has not played since spraining his right ankle in the third quarter of Game 3 against Miami on May 7.
Valanciunas is averaging 15 points and 12.1 rebounds in 10 games this postseason.
Starting in place of Valanciunas, Bismack Biyombo had a Raptors playoff-record 26 rebounds as Toronto won 99-84 in Game 3 on Saturday, snapping Cleveland's 10-game winning streak to start the playoffs.
The Cavs lead the best-of-seven series 2-1.
