TORONTO – DeMar DeRozan returned to the Toronto Raptors’ lineup on Sunday, after missing three games with a sprained right ankle.

The three-time all-star was slated to start against the visiting Orlando Magic.

DeRozan suffered the injury in the Raptors’ home loss to Phoenix a week ago, after landing on teammate Jonas Valanciunas’s foot.

He leads the team offensively, averaging 27.9 points a game.
