Toronto Raptors centre Jontay Porter was forced to exit Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings due to illness.
The 24-year-old recorded just three minutes of play before he was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
His absence left the team with 11 available players, including just one traditional centre and no traditional point guards.
Across 24 games this season for Toronto, Porter is averaging 4.5 points, 3.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists in 11.1 minutes.
The Raptors went into Wednesday's contest having lost seven in a row and were already missing Immanuel Quickly, RJ Barrett, Scottie Barnes, Jakob Poeltl, Chris Boucher and D.J. Carton.
