Raptors forward Hedo Turkoglu has reluctantly agreed to wear a protective mask to protect his fracture eye socket.

"It's going to be fun," Turkoglu said Saturday. "I'm excited about it, too. I can't wait to see and I'm going to watch the film after to see how I looked."

Turkoglu was at first reluctant to wear the mask to protect an injury he suffered a week ago after running into the elbow of Pacers forward Mike Dunleavy.

"I talked to a couple of other doctors, a couple of other friends and they really kind of told me the same stuff that these guys told me," he said "It's not that I didn't believe (Raptors doctors), but (friends) called me because they heard I wasn't going to wear the mask and they said, 'Don't be stupid.'
