TORONTO (AP) -- Tracy McGrady and Doug Christie of the Toronto Raptors both have ankle injuries and could miss Sunday's Game 3 of the first-round playoff series against the New York Knicks.

The Raptors trail the Knicks 2-0 in the best-of-five series.

McGrady mildly sprained his left ankle during Friday night's practice. Both he and Christie, who has been hampered by a bruised right ankle for a couple of weeks, did not participate in Saturday's practice.

Coach Butch Carter said it will be a game-time decision on whether either of the two can play.

McGrady, second on the team in scoring at 19 points a game, said he will play through the injury.

Christie, replaced as a starter by Muggsy Bogues in Game 2, has played just 21 minutes and scored 12 points in the series.
