    Found a source:http://www.cbc.ca/cp/nba/070301/v030136A.htmlApparently it's an illness of one of his family members. Sure he's a pretty big part of this team, but there are always others that can step up and do the job. In this case Kris Humphries will get some more burn.

    dam. This will hurt the Raptors next 2 games. He's been amazing these past 2 months. Raptors will sure miss him. hopefully Mo and Juan Dixon can both have great games in his absense.

    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Toronto Raptors rookie Andrea Bargnani will play in Friday against Milwaukee after he was expected to miss two games.

    Bargnani was unable to get a flight home to Italy because of bad weather in Toronto. A team spokesman says he's now scheduled to fly home Saturday.

    He will now miss a game in Cleveland on Saturday but is still expected back Tuesday for a game at the Washington Wizards.</div>
    OK, wow. I am confused with this. First it says he'll play today, then it says he'll miss tomorrow's game and he'll be back Tuesday. WTF? If he's playing tonight, then why would be miss tomorrow's game?

    First they said he won't play on Friday and Saturday, and that he'll be back Tuesday. The weather in Toronto is bad today and he can't fly, so he has no choice but to play today. So instead of missing 2 games, he's missing 1 game.

    Anyone know what kind of family member it is? Uncle, brother, father, cousin???It's a good thing that he's playing today, but it's not like we wouldn't be able to win without him. Is this family member seriously ill? If so, that is too bad for Andrea

    :happy0144: My bad, I guess I just didn't understand it due to the poor way of wording it all in that RealGM link.
