Raptor coach Sam Mitchell said that Chris Bosh will not play in Wednesday's game against Lithuania's Zalgiris Kaunas and will likely miss Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls as well.

"I want to be overly cautious," Mitchell said Tuesday afternoon. "We want to get him past this and hopefully not have to deal with it any more."

Bosh missed the final pre-season game of Toronto's European tour with a sore left knee and also sat out a couple of practices. By missing the two games this week, he'll have just two exhibition games - next Thursday and Friday against Washington and Cleveland - to prepare for the Oct. 31 season opener.
