Toronto center Jermaine O'Neal sat out on Friday night and has admitted that his bruised right knee has left him day-to-day.

"I'm day-to-day," O'Neal said Friday night.

The Raptors will face the Magic on Saturday night.

Coach Jay Triano is concerned about losing O'Neal's shot-blocking ability.

"Jermaine's been a big clog for us in the inside, but Andrea (Bargnani) guards the post pretty well," Triano said. "He'll have a tough job ahead of him tonight. If they elect to put Yao Ming on (small forward) Jamario Moon the way they did last year, we'll deal with that, but if they put him on Andrea, we'll try to keep him away from the basket."
