Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes records 24/10/4/0/1 line vs. IND
Wed, Nov 26, 2025, 4:21 PM
Scottie Barnes finished Wednesday's win over the Pacers with 24 points (5-of-12 FGs, 14-of-14 FTs), 10 rebounds, four assists and one blocked shot.
Analysis: For just the second time in his last seven games, Barnes scored at least 20 points. However, he has remained a highly valuable option in fantasy leagues, even with a slight dip in scoring. Over the past two weeks, Barnes has been a top-15 player in eight- and nine-cat formats, which aligns with his season-long value. The Raptors end Week 6 with a back-to-back against the Hornets and Knicks on Saturday and Sunday. The matchup with Charlotte should be an especially good one for Barnes. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram scores game-high 26 points vs. IND

Eric Koreen
Brandon Ingram tallied 26 points (11-of-23 FGs, 3-of-5 FTs), eight rebounds, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in Wednesday's win over the Pacers.
Analysis: With the Pistons losing to Boston on Wednesday, Toronto's nine-game win streak is the longest in the Eastern Conference. They've got Ingram to thank for their most recent victory, as of a second remaining was the difference. He's scored at least 22 points in five of his last six games and has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. As long as Ingram remains healthy, fantasy managers should receive excellent value moving forward. |

Gradey Dick Gradey Dick (head) will not return Wednesday
Wed, Nov 26, 2025, 2:39 PM
Esfandiar Baraheni
Gradey Dick (head) will not return to Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Gradey fell hard on his back late in the first quarter, forcing his head to snap back and hit the court. After some time in the bench area just before the start of the second, he went back to the locker room to be evaluated, and the Raptors have ruled Gradey out for the rest of the night. His absence likely means more minutes for Ja'Kobe Walter, especially with RJ Barrett (knee) out for at least one week. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett (knee) out at least a week
Wed, Nov 26, 2025, 5:43 AM
Esfandiar Baraheni
The Athletic's Esfandiar Baraheni reports that RJ Barrett (knee) will be re-evaluated in a week.
Analysis: Barrett sustained a right knee sprain in Sunday's win over Brooklyn before sitting out Monday's win over Cleveland. His timeline means Barrett will miss at least four games, though he could be forced to sit out additional games beyond that, depending on his recovery. Ja'Kobe Walter started on Monday, though he did little with his 24 minutes. Jamal Shead logged 24 minutes off the bench, and he should see an uptick in playing time for as long as Barrett is out. Gradey Dick may be more involved, too, so fantasy managers don't have a clear pickup here. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett (knee) out Wednesday vs. Indiana

Blake Murphy
RJ Barrett (knee) is out for Wednesday's game against the Pacers.
Analysis: Barrett will miss a second straight game with a sprained right knee, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Ja'Kobe Walter started Monday's win over the Cavaliers, playing 24 minutes. While starting raises his fantasy ceiling, 24 minutes may not be enough for Walter to be worth the risk. |

Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl grabs 13 boards in win over Cleveland
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 3:49 PM
Jakob Poeltl tallied seven points (3-of-4 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 13 rebounds, one assist and two steals in the win over the Cavaliers on Monday.
Analysis: Poeltl didn't have to score much to have an impact on the Raptors' victory. He crashed the glass hard and finished with a game-high in rebounds, while also finishing as one of two Raptors players with multiple steals. The veteran center has started in each of his appearances this year and continues to be a reliable frontcourt option for the suddenly-hot Raptors, who have not reeled off eight wins in a row. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes adds 18/11 double-double vs. Cavs
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 3:40 PM
Scottie Barnes totaled 18 points (8-of-13 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, six assists and one steal in Monday's win over the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Barnes made a big impact on Monday's win, finishing as one of four Toronto players to score in double figures, and one of two to collect double-digit rebounds. Despite missing on each of his three-point attempts, Barnes shot the ball efficiently overall and also found a way to conclude as one of the Raptors' best playmakers on the night. With his work on the glass, he collected his eighth double-double of the season and will have a chance to land a consecutive one against the Pacers on Wednesday. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram goes off for 37 points on Cavaliers
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 3:33 PM
Brandon Ingram finished Monday's win over the Cavaliers with 37 points (15-of-30 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and five three-pointers.
Analysis: Ingram made his way past the 30-point mark for the first time this season and finished a few missed free throws away from a 40-point game. The former Most Improved Player took one-third of the Raptors' field goal attempts, leading to a season-high five triples. He shot efficiently and also did solid work on the glass before the night ended in an eighth-straight win for Toronto, which holds the second spot in the Eastern Conference standings. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett (knee) considered day-to-day
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 11:25 AM
Michael Grange
RJ Barrett (knee) is considered day-to-day after spraining his right knee during Sunday's win over the Nets.
Analysis: Barrett landed awkwardly after completing a dunk during the third quarter of Sunday's victory. Already ruled out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers, he's considered day-to-day, which is excellent news for the Raptors. Ja'Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick are two players whose minutes may increase with Barrett unavailable. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett (knee) out Monday vs. Cavaliers
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 8:10 AM
RJ Barrett (knee) is out for Monday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Barrett injured his knee when he appeared to land awkwardly after a third quarter dunk in Sunday's game against the Nets. The 25-year-old small forward didn't return to the game and is out for Monday's second game of a back-to-back against the Cavaliers. Ja'Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick are candidates for extra minutes with Barrett out, though neither are worth streaming. |

Scottie Barnes Barnes propels Raptors to seventh straight win
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 3:20 PM
Scottie Barnes piled up a team-high 17 points (6-of-13 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, four assists, two steals and four blocks over 33 minutes on Sunday to propel the Raptors to a 119-109 win over the Nets.
Analysis: Barnes helped fuel Toronto to their seventh straight win since November 11 in a balanced effort where eight Raptors reached double figures. He'll take on an even larger share of the scoring load moving forward after RJ Barrett exited with a knee injury. The 24-year-old fantasy standout has produced first-round value so far, averaging 19.3 points, 7.6 rebounds, five assists, 1.5 steals and 1.8 blocks through 17 games. Toronto faces a quick turnaround with Monday's matchup against the Cavaliers to close out a back-to-back that opens a four-game week also featuring the Pacers, Hornets and Knicks. |

Gradey Dick Dick contributes 12 points off the bench in win
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 3:17 PM
Gradey Dick chipped in 12 points (3-of-6 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), one rebound, three assists and two steals over 19 minutes in Sunday's win over the Nets.
Analysis: Dick came off the bench to knock down a pair of three-pointers as one of eight Raptors in double figures. His role could expand in the short term if RJ Barrett is sidelined for any length of time after leaving Sunday's contest with a knee injury. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett (knee) will not return Sunday
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 1:56 PM
Michael Grange
RJ Barrett (knee) will not return to Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Barrett appeared to land awkwardly after completing a dunk during the third quarter of Sunday's game. He would leave less than a minute later and has now been ruled out for the rest of the night. Ja'Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick are available to absorb some of the minutes that would have gone to Barrett. |

Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl (back) out Sunday vs. Brooklyn
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 10:26 AM
Blake Murphy
Jakob Poeltl (back) is out for Sunday's game against the Nets.
Analysis: Sunday's game is the first of two in as many nights for the Raptors, who host the Cavaliers on Monday. Poeltl, who missed time earlier this season with a sore lower back, will not play on Sunday. Sandro Mamukelashvili, who scored a season-high 23 points on Friday, is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup. How high Mamu's ceiling is depends on the availability of Collin Murray-Boyles, who is questionable. |

Sandro Mamukelashvili Sandro Mamukelashvili scores season-high 23 points
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:34 PM
Sandro Mamukelashvili finished Friday's win over the Wizards with 23 points (8-of-15 FGs, 5-of-6 FTs), seven rebounds, two assists, one steal and two three-pointers.
Analysis: Mamukelashvili endured some struggles finishing around the basket during the first half, but that did not prevent him from having his most productive outing of the season. He recorded his first 20-point game of the season and provided solid value in the rebound category. With Collin Murray-Boyles (knee) out, there's even more room for Mamukelashvili to have an impact. He hasn't reached the point where he needs to be rostered in deep leagues, but keep an eye on Mamu. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes drops 23 points, three steals
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:32 PM
Scottie Barnes accumulated 23 points (10-of-15 FGs), five rebounds, two assists, three steals and three three-pointers in Friday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: Barnes' progression as a three-point shooter has been remarkable, considering how much he struggled in his first four seasons. After averaging 4.9 and 4.3 attempts during the 2023-24 and 2024-25 seasons, he's averaging a shade under four in 2025-26. More importantly, Barnes' shot quality has been a factor in his shooting 39 percent from beyond the arc. He's providing top-15 value in eight- and nine-cat formats, exceeding his Yahoo! ADP (26). |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett tallies 24 points, eight rebounds
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:29 PM
RJ Barrett finished Friday's win over the Wizards with 24 points (9-of-15 FGs, 4-of-8 FTs), eight rebounds, four assists and two three-pointers.
Analysis: While Barrett isn't providing top-100 value in eight- or nine-cat formats, he's been more consistently productive this season than in years past. And that's somewhat surprising given the Raptors' addition of Brandon Ingram to the mix this season. Barrett has done enough to merit being rostered in most leagues, but increased defensive production would do wonders for his value. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram records 24/8/6/2/1 line vs. WAS
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:16 PM
Brandon Ingram amassed 24 points (6-of-12 FGs, 12-of-13 FTs), eight rebounds, six assists, two steals and one blocked shot in Friday's rout of the Wizards.
Analysis: Four Raptors, including Ingram, scored either 23 or 24 points in Friday's 140-110 victory. He's scored at least 20 in three straight and of his last eight appearances, and availability hasn't been an issue for Ingram, either. Yet to miss a game, he's providing top-50 value in eight-cat formats. Given Ingram's injury history, fantasy managers may be hesitant to get too excited this early in the season. However, this has been a very encouraging start to his first season in Toronto. |

Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley dishes out seven assists vs. WAS
Fri, Nov 21, 2025, 4:04 PM
Immanuel Quickley tallied 17 points (6-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), two rebounds, seven assists, one steal, one block and three three-pointers in Friday's win over the Wizards.
Analysis: The Raptors clinched a spot in the NBA Cup quarterfinals with a dominant performance on Friday. While Quickley wasn't one of the four to score at least 23 points, he did dish out a team-high seven assists. Based on his Yahoo! ADP of 74, the Raptors point guard was expected to be a solid fantasy option this season. He's been slightly better, providing sixth-round value in nine-cat formats. Sunday's game against the Nets sets up to be another advantageous matchup for Quickley and the Raptors. |

Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley hits four triples, scores 18
Wed, Nov 19, 2025, 3:30 PM
Immanuel Quickley tallied 18 points (7-of-15 FGs), five rebounds, six assists, three steals and four three-pointers in Wednesday's win over the 76ers.
Analysis: Providing fifth-round value in nine-cat formats for the season, Quickley has been even better over the past week. He's been a top-40 player during this stretch, averaging 17.5 points on 57.1 percent shooting. Quickley has also provided solid value in the assist and steals categories, which has boosted his standing within fantasy basketball. |
