The Toronto Raptors will have Andre Bargnani back in the starting lineup on Friday night when they play the Phoenix Suns at the Air Canada Centre.
Raptors coach Dwane Casey said that the 7-footers sore ankle felt fine after the team shoot-around earlier in the day and that he was good to go.
Bargnani, who is averaging 17.9 points and 4.7 rebounds on the year, missed Toronto's last game on Wednesday in Memphis after twisting his left ankle.
