Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) downgraded to out
Mon, Apr 20, 2026, 11:42 AM
Esfandiar Baraheni
Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) is out for Monday's Game 2 against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Quickley will miss a second consecutive playoff game as he recovers from a strained right hamstring. Jamal Shead started Saturday's series-opening defeat, and Quickley's absence factored into Brandon Ingram only attempting nine shots in Game 1. For Toronto to have any chance of winning Game 2, they need Ingram to be more involved as a scorer than he was on Saturday. |

NBA Injury Report
Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's Game 2 against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Quickley suffered a strained right hamstring during the Raptors' regular-season finale and did not play in Saturday's series-opening loss to the Cavaliers. If he's able to return for Game 2, Jamal Shead would be bumped to the bench. Quickley's return would also be good news for Brandon Ingram, who only attempted nine shots in Game 1. |

Analysis: Shead replaced Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) in the starting lineup for Game 1 against the Cavaliers on Saturday. The 23-year-old point guard gave the Raptors a spark with 17 points and five three-pointers. Quickley is said to be improving and could return later in the series, but Shead did about as well as the Raptors could've hoped in his Game 1 spot start. |

Scottie Barnes Barnes has 21 points, seven assists in Game 1 loss
Sat, Apr 18, 2026, 10:07 AM
Scottie Barnes had 21 points (6-of-14 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), one rebound, seven assists and three three-pointers in Saturday's Game 1 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Barnes had 21 points on 14 attempts from the field and three three-pointers. The 24-year-old small forward also had seven assists, but he also had five turnovers. Barnes was a game-worst -22 in his 32 minutes on the floor. The Raptors will need Barnes to take better care of the ball if they're going to make this a series. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram has 17 points in Game 1 loss
Sat, Apr 18, 2026, 10:00 AM
Brandon Ingram had 17 points (5-of-9 FGs, 7-of-10 FTs), two rebounds, four assists and one block in Saturday's Game 1 loss to the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Ingram didn't make a great impression in his first playoff action with the Raptors. The 28-year-old small forward had just four points and was 0-of-1 from the field in the second half. With Ingram not scoring, the Cavaliers pulled away in the third quarter, winning it by 14 points. Ingram will need to bounce back in a big way if the Raptors are going to get back into the series. |

Analysis: Quickley is set to miss Game 1 against the Cavaliers on Saturday with a right hamstring strain. The 26-year-old point guard suffered the injury in the Raptors' last game of the regular season.

Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's Game 1 against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Quickley had to exit Toronto's regular-season finale due to tightness in his right hamstring, and the injury has been diagnosed as a strain. Ja'Kobe Walter was the replacement the last time that Quickley was the lone unavailable starter for the Raptors, and that may be the case for Game 1. Another candidate to fill the potential void is Jamal Shead. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes posts triple-double in blowout win
Sun, Apr 12, 2026, 4:43 PM
Scottie Barnes recorded a triple-double on Sunday with 18 points (8-of-11 FGs), 12 rebounds, 12 assists, one steal and three blocks in a 136-101 win over the Nets.
Analysis: In the regular season finale, Barnes put up his third triple-double of the season, which was his first since December. That was enough to get the win for the Raptors and push them up to the No. 5 seed in the East, which sets them up to take on the Cavaliers in round one. Barnes has been incredible this season and has been a big reason for Toronto's success. They'll need him at his best to have a chance to pull the upset against Cleveland. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett scores game-high 26 points vs. Brooklyn
Sun, Apr 12, 2026, 4:40 PM
RJ Barrett led the Raptors with 26 points (9-of-15 FGs, 6-of-9 FTs), three rebounds, two assists and two three-pointers against the Nets on Sunday.
Analysis: Barrett was back for the season finale following a one-game absence with a knee injury. He was able to have a strong performance offensively, leading Toronto in scoring. Barrett has been solid to wrap up the regular season, and they'll need him to be at his best against Cleveland in the first round. He'll continue to be one of their top scoring options, and his production may end up being more vital than usual if Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) ends up missing time. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram scores 25 points vs. Brooklyn
Sun, Apr 12, 2026, 4:32 PM
Brandon Ingram lit up the Nets with 25 points (7-of-10 FGs, 8-of-8 FTs), nine rebounds, two assists, one block and three three-pointers on Sunday.
Analysis: Ingram's first regular season with the Raptors ended on a high note. Over the final four games, he averaged 25.5 points while shooting 57.8 percent from the floor. That was enough to lead Toronto to the fifth seed in the East, which sets them with a first-round matchup against the Cavaliers. Ingram played in 77 games this season, which was the most he played in since his rookie year. They'll need him at his best to defeat Cleveland. |

Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) will not return Sun.
Sun, Apr 12, 2026, 1:31 PM
Blake Murphy
Immanuel Quickley (hamstring) will not return to Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Quickley playing limited minutes on the final day of the regular season is unsurprising. However, he's done for the rest of the night due to tightness in his right hamstring, which is not good news heading into the playoffs. Quickley recently returned to action after missing time with a foot injury, so this is another lower-body issue for him to deal with. Jamal Shead started the third quarter. |

Sun, Apr 12, 2026, 10:35 AM
Trayce Jackson-Davis (illness) is available for Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Jackson-Davis has missed the last two games with an illness, but is set to return on Sunday against the Nets. Minutes have been tough to come by for the 26-year-old power forward, so his availability doesn't affect the Raptors' rotation. |

NBA Injury Report

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes scores 15 points vs. New York
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 4:35 PM
Scottie Barnes amassed 15 points (6-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), four rebounds and five assists in Friday's loss to the Knicks.
Analysis: Barnes did not record any defensive stats against the Knicks, marking two consecutive games without a steal or a blocked shot. With the Raptors' forward being among the league leaders in combined steals and blocks, fantasy managers in active leagues certainly expected more from Barnes. If there's a positive to take from Friday's defeat, it's that the Raptors will likely need to play their regulars in Sunday's season finale against the Nets as they look to secure a top-6 seed in the East. |
