Raptors bench gives Pat McCaw standing ovation as he checks in for first time since last March

The Toronto Raptors had a familiar face back on their bench on Friday night as Patrick McCaw was in the lineup for the first time this season.

McCaw required knee surgery after dealing with issues last season, and with the Raptors holding a 19-point lead over the Minnesota Timberwolves late in the first half he got his first taste of game action in more than five months.
 

As McCaw checked into the game for the Raptors, his teammates showed him some love by giving him his own mini standing ovation on the sidelines.
 

The three-time NBA champion hasn’t seen game action since March 9, so it’s nice to see him healthy and back in the lineup.
