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. |

Trayce Jackson-Davis Trayce Jackson-Davis (illness) available Sunday
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. |

Analysis: Barrett missed Friday's loss to the Knicks with a sore right knee, but is set to return Sunday against the Nets. Ja'Kobe Walter will head back to the bench with Barrett back in the starting lineup. |

Sat, Apr 11, 2026, 11:02 AM
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. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram posts 16 points, six assists
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 4:34 PM
Brandon Ingram recorded 16 points (8-of-15 FGs, 0-of-4 FTs), four rebounds, six assists and one steal in Friday's loss to the Knicks.
Analysis: While Ingram shot just over 50 percent from the field, he missed all four of his free-throw attempts in an underwhelming showing in New York. For fantasy managers in active leagues, BI did provide solid value in rebounds and assists, but he's certainly had better nights. With the Raptors still needing to win on Sunday to guarantee that they avoid the Play-In tournament, Ingram should play starters' minutes against the Nets. |

Sandro Mamukelashvili Sandro Mamukelashvili scores team-high 17 points
Fri, Apr 10, 2026, 4:34 PM
Sandro Mamukelashvili tallied 17 points (5-of-9 FGs, 4-of-6 FTs), eight rebounds, three assists, one steal and three three-pointers in Friday's loss to the Knicks.
Analysis: With Jakob Poeltl (4/3/1/1) struggling in his 19 minutes, especially defensively, and Collin Murray-Boyles unavailable, Mamukelashvili's playing time increased on Friday. The Raptors' forward/center logged 25 minutes off the bench and led the team in scoring. Add in the rebounds and assists, and this was a productive night at the office for Mamu. With Friday's defeat, the Raptors will have work to do on Sunday to secure a top-6 seed in the East and avoid the Play-In Tournament. |

Josh Lewenberg
Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl will start against the Knicks on Friday.
Analysis: With Immanuel Quickley (foot) and RJ Barrett (knee) both sidelined for this game, Shead and Walter will return to the starting unit. Both players have had productive starts recently and will look to help Toronto avoid the play-in tournament. |

Josh Lewenberg
RJ Barrett (knee) is out for Friday's game against the Knicks.
Analysis: Absent from the Raptors' initial injury report, Barrett will not play against his former team due to a sore right knee. Ja'Kobe Walter is the most likely replacement in the starting lineup. |

Analysis: IQ will get the night off with right foot injury management, and his absence could mean another spot start for Ja'Kobe Walter and increased run for Jamal Shead. |

RJ Barrett RJ Barrett finishes blowout win with 24 points
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 3:40 PM
RJ Barrett tallied 22 points (6-of-15 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and one three-pointer in Thursday's win over the Heat.
Analysis: Barrett has scored at least 20 points in five of his last seven games. Against the Heat, his final stat line only lacked a blocked shot, and a 9-of-10 night from the foul line helped boost the point total. While not the best option in category leagues, Barrett has played well down the stretch, and he's one of many Raptors who benefited from the return of Immanuel Quickley (11/3/4/1 with three three-pointers) in the two wins over the Heat. Having the point guard on the floor is huge for the Raptors, even if Quickley does not appear to be at full strength. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram drops game-high 38 points on Miami
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 3:40 PM
Brandon Ingram finished Thursday's win over the Heat with 38 points (13-of-23 FGs, 10-of-11 FTs), seven rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two three-pointers.
Analysis: Ingram put on an offensive clinic on Thursday, helping the Raptors complete a sweep of the season series with the Heat for the first time since 2018-19. In addition to the 38 points, the slender forward recorded seven rebounds and seven assists in one of his better all-around efforts of the season. The Raptors moved into fifth in the East with their win over the Heat; two wins would keep them ahead of Atlanta because of the head-to-head tiebreaker. |

Trayce Jackson-Davis Trayce Jackson-Davis (illness) out vs. Miami
Thu, Apr 9, 2026, 6:48 AM
NBA Injury Report
Trayce Jackson-Davis (illness) is out for Thursday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Jackson-Davis is a new addition to the Raptors' injury report. His absence does not affect the Raptors' rotation, as minutes have been challenging to come by for the third-year forward/center. |

Jakob Poeltl Jakob Poeltl posts 17/6/3/2/1 line vs. Miami
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:15 PM
Jakob Poeltl recorded 17 points (8-of-13 FGs, 1-of-3 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and one blocked shot in Tuesday's win over the Heat.
Analysis: Poeltl has scored in double figures in seven of his last eight appearances, providing more consistent production as he gets further removed from the time missed with a back injury. Add in Sandro Mamukelasvhili (11/5/1 with two three-pointers) and Collin Murray-Boyles (6/8/1/1/2), and the Raptors received positive contributions from their top three options on the interior. |

Brandon Ingram Brandon Ingram hits three triples, scores 23
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:14 PM
Brandon Ingram finished Tuesday's win over the Heat with 23 points (9-of-16 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), six rebounds, three assists, two steals and three three-pointers.
Analysis: Since totaling 70 points in wins over the Suns and Pistons in mid-March, Ingram entered Tuesday having recorded one 20-point game in his last eight appearances. That dry spell coincided with Immanuel Quickley's absence due to a foot injury, so getting IQ back on the court Tuesday night was huge for Ingram. In addition to the efficient scoring, he offered solid value in rebounds, assists, steals and three-pointers. |

Scottie Barnes Scottie Barnes records 25/8/5/1/1 line vs. Miami
Tue, Apr 7, 2026, 4:14 PM
Scottie Barnes accounted for 25 points (10-of-16 FGs, 3-of-4 FTs), eight rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in Tuesday's win over the Heat.
Analysis: Having scored 14 points or less in four straight games, Barnes snapped out of his slump on Tuesday. The 25 points were the most in a game for the All-Star forward since February 8, when he hit that number in a win over the Pacers. However, while it was good to see Barnes get untracked as a scorer, his ability to fill a stat line is what makes him so valuable in fantasy leagues. He's tallied at least five assists and one steal in each of his last seven games. |
