Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley dishes out seven assists Sunday
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:52 PM
Immanuel Quickley accounted for 12 points (3-of-13 FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, seven assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Lakers.
Analysis: Quickley has made at least three three-pointers in four straight and five of six games this season. That, along with the rebounds and assists, was the positive from his performance on Sunday. However, Quickley shot poorly against the Lakers, dropping his field-goal percentage to 37.6 percent for the season. It certainly isn't impossible for a guard to provide solid value despite a low field-goal percentage, but fantasy managers want to see Quickley shoot better than he has. |
RJ Barrett RJ Barrett hits four triples, scores 22 points
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:47 PM
RJ Barrett accumulated 22 points (9-of-18 FGs), 10 rebounds, five assists and four three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Lakers.
Analysis: Barrett has scored at least 20 points in three of his last four games, a stretch that coincides with the Raptors' loss of Kawhi Leonard to a knee injury. While he didn't record any defensive stats on Sunday, fantasy managers will be pleased with Barrett's double-double, his first of the season, and the assists. The Raptors play three games next week, starting with the Clippers on Monday. |
Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes scores game-high 29 points vs. LAL
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 5:45 PM
Scottie Barnes finished Sunday's loss to the Lakers with 29 points (11-of-20 FGs, 7-of-13 FTs), six rebounds, five assists and two steals.
Analysis: Barnes' mid-range mastery helped him score 29 points, and he's scored at least 28 in three straight and four of his last five games. The exception was the October 25 loss to the Timberwolves, in which the Raptors' star went scoreless. With Kawhi Leonard (knee) out for a few weeks, Barnes will need to shoulder more responsibility on both ends of the floor. And he's shown the ability to do that in the past. |
Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl (shoulder) ruled out Sunday vs. LAL
Sun, Nov 1, 2026, 2:47 PM
Blake Murphy
Jakob Poeltl (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game against the Lakers.
Analysis: Due to left shoulder bursitis, Poeltl is a late scratch for Sunday's game. Trayce Jackson-Davis will replace him in the starting lineup, but Poeltl's absence will likely give Collin Murray-Boyles more playing time as well. |

Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl with 12/11 in 23 minutes of play
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 4:38 PM
Jakob Poeltl had 12 points (5-of-10 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), eleven rebounds, three assists, a steal in 23 minutes against the Magic.
Analysis: Poeltl has overall been very underwhelming this season, but he had a very good performance tonight against the Magic. While Poeltl is on the decline, he can still put up numbers at times. The Raptors continue to start him which shows a vote of confidence in him. He's worth a stream if you need rebounds, but he's not worth an add in most redraft formats. |

Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley with 8 assists in loss to Magic
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 4:34 PM
Immanuel Quickley scored 17 points (6-of-14 FGs, 1-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, eight assists, and four 3-pointers in loss to Magic.
Analysis: Quickley hasn't been the most efficient in the start of his season, but other than that, he's been exactly what you would've expected. With no Kawhi Leonard, Quickley will need to step up and be more of a scorer. He's one of the best shooters on the team and he will very important to the team and that was shown by his contract. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes with a career high 41 points
Fri, Oct 30, 2026, 4:24 PM
Scottie Barnes with a career high 41 points (19-of-34 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), five rebounds, five assists, two steals, and a three in the 121-114 loss to the Magic.
Analysis: Scottie Barnes was carrying the offense in the first half for the Raptors with 23 first half points. No one else on the team which helped Scottie's value, but it didn't exactly help the Raptors as the Magic got revenge on this one. Scottie has been an absolute monster this season will continue to put up crazy performances with and without Kawhi Leonard playing. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett with 25/9/6 and a steal in blowout win
Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 4:38 PM
RJ Barrett with a monster 25 points (9-of-8 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), nine rebounds, six assists, a steal and three 3-pointers on Wednesday against the Magic.
Analysis: RJ Barrett took the shots early in this game in the first game without Kawhi and was efficient from the field. Notably, he was on the exercise bike at multiple points in this game, so it could be something to monitor. If you got RJ Barrett in fantasy, you should be really happy about what he's been doing. He won't get you many defensive numbers but he will certainly score, and get you some rebounds. There's an opportunity with Kawhi out, so there could be room to sell-high if someone gives you a good offer. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes with 28 points and 3 steals in win
Wed, Oct 28, 2026, 4:33 PM
Scottie Barnes has 28 points (11-of-17 FGs, 6-of-6 FTs), six rebounds, four assists, three steals, and two blocks in 129-99 win against the Magic.
Analysis: With no Kawhi Leonard, Scottie Barnes made up the difference and kept the defense aggressive in this game. He's very good as a roamer and can get a lot of his defensive numbers that way. If you drafted Scottie Barnes, you should be feeling very happy about that decision and should be in contention to finish in the top 10 of fantasy rankings this season. |
Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard (knee) out multiple weeks
Tue, Oct 27, 2026, 6:45 AM
Shams Charania
ESPN's Shams Charania reports that Kawhi Leonard will miss âa period of weeksâ due to swelling in his left knee.
Analysis: According to Shams, an MRI revealed no structural damage, but the Raptors are being cautious with the superstar and will keep an eye on his knee while ramping him back up. In his absence, Ja'Kobe Walter should see an increased role. Walter started on Sunday and finished with 22/4/2 with three âstocksâ and five triples. Guys like Jamal Shead and Collin Murray-Boyles could also be in line for bumps in playing time, but Walter is the preferred add from a fantasy basketball perspective. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett posts 20 points, three steals vs. MIN
Sun, Oct 25, 2026, 4:39 PM
RJ Barrett finished Sunday's loss to the Timberwolves with 20 points (9-of-21 FGs, 2-of-5 FTs), two rebounds, two assists and three steals.
Analysis: Barrett helped keep the Raptors within striking distance of the Timberwolves in the first half, scoring 14 points. Unfortunately for him, he went cold in the third quarter, along with the rest of the Raptors, shooting 1-of-5 from the field. Toronto was outscored 35-15 as Kawhi Leonard's absence and Scottie Barnes' 0-of-12 shooting caught up to them. Barrett and the Raptors will look to bounce back on Wednesday against the Magic. |

Immanuel Quickley Immanuel Quickley posts 19/3/2/1 stat line
Sun, Oct 25, 2026, 4:36 PM
Immanuel Quickley amassed 19 points (7-of-15 FGs, 2-of-3 Fts), three rebounds, two assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Sunday's loss to the Timberwolves.
Analysis: Quickley had a productive night, but it didn't matter much when two other Raptors starters (Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl) went scoreless, shooting 0-of-14 from the field combined. IQ's current fantasy value doesn't align with his preseason ADP, but he's a relatively safe bet for at least top-100 value. The Raptors play three games in Week 2, starting with the Magic on Wednesday. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes goes scoreless, shoots 0-of-12
Sun, Oct 25, 2026, 4:00 PM
Scottie Barnes failed to score in Sunday's loss to the Timberwolves, finishing with three rebounds, three assists, four steals and one blocked shot.
Analysis: With Kawhi Leonard (knee) unavailable, the Timberwolves could focus more of their defensive attention on Barnes. Unfortunately for the Raptors and fantasy managers who are rostering him, Barnes couldn't buy a basket. He shot 0-of-12 from the field and did not attempt a free throw. Given Barnes' track record, managers should expect to see him bounce back from Sunday's performance. But it was a rough way to end Week 1. |

Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard (knee) ruled out Sunday vs. MIN
Sun, Oct 25, 2026, 12:05 PM
NBA Injury Report
Kawhi Leonard (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Timberwolves.
Analysis: A late addition to the Raptors' injury report, Leonard will not play on Sunday due to swelling in his left knee. Ja'Kobe Walter will likely replace him in the starting lineup, which could slightly raise his fantasy ceiling. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett with 23/9/4 on Friday
Fri, Oct 23, 2026, 4:02 PM
RJ Barrett played great with 23 points (9-of-16 FGs, 4-of-5 FTs), nine rebounds, four assists, a block and a three in 34 minutes.
Analysis: We got one of RJ's good games in this one. He's gotten much better with peripheral stats since getting to the Raptors. There will be bad games where you will get frustrated with the shot chucking when he's missing shots, but for now, if you have RJ, you're feeling good after this performance. |

Immanuel Quickley Quickley with 12 points and 6 assists
Fri, Oct 23, 2026, 3:59 PM
Immanuel Quickley puts up 12 points (5-of-15 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), a rebound and six assists vs. Wizards.
Analysis: Quickley wasn't as good as his previous outing, but it isn't that far from what you're expecting from him. If he hit two of his 3-point attempts, the stat line would go from not great to good. Don't panic and get ready for the next one. His role is very secure on this Raptors team given how much they need shooting. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie with a monster 28/14/5 against Wizards
Fri, Oct 23, 2026, 3:57 PM
Scottie Barnes scored 28 points (12-of- FGs, 3-of-3 FTs), fourteen rebounds, five assists, two steals, two blocks and a three on Friday.
Analysis: You would like Scottie to hit some more 3's and not turn the ball over 8 times, but that's not why you have him. These are the stat lines that you wanted when you drafted Scottie as early as you did. There are not many players that can get 28 points, 14 rebounds, and 5 assists in fantasy. Sit back and enjoy the high-level production. |

Kawhi Leonard Kawhi Leonard with 16/8 vs the Wizards in win
Fri, Oct 23, 2026, 3:54 PM
Kawhi Leonard had 16 points (7-of-19 FGs), 8 rebounds, an assist, 3 assists, and two 3-pointers in a 112-102 win against the Wizards.
Analysis: Kawhi had a quiet night with only 27 minutes played. They didn't really need him as much given where the game was at near the end. The Raptors will be trying to manage Kawhi's minutes as the season goes along. He also won't shoot 36.8% from the field very often, so don't panic there. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett puts up 20 points, four rebounds
Wed, Oct 21, 2026, 4:41 PM
RJ Barrett amassed 20 points (8-of-14 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), four rebounds and three assists in Wednesday's win over the Bulls.
Analysis: After scoring six points on 3-of-8 shooting in the first half, Barrett scored 10 in the third quarter alone. He shot well on Wednesday, making just over half his shots, and he also posted solid rebound and assist numbers. Most encouraging were the 14 shots, possibly a sign that Barrett's volume won't suffer much with Kawhi Leonard back in Toronto. Barrett has long offered better value in points leagues than category leagues, and that's unlikely to change in 2026-27. |

Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl plays 22 minutes vs. Chicago
Wed, Oct 21, 2026, 4:39 PM
Jakob Poeltl finished Wednesday's win over the Bulls with three points (1-of-1 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, one steal and one blocked shot.
Analysis: Four Raptors starters scored at least 20 points on Wednesday, with Poeltl (unsurprisingly) taking the hit. The 7-footer took only one shot, and low-attempt games will likely be the norm this season. Also, Collin Murray-Boyles (6/8/3/1/1) played 20 minutes off the bench, while Poeltl played 22. The two shared the court for three minutes during the first quarter, but that was it. If Poeltl and CMB split minutes evenly as the season progresses, the former may not be worth rostering in 12-team leagues. |
