Rotoworld Player News

Scottie Barnes

TOR Forward-Guard #4

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Scottie Barnes finished with 17 points (5-of-13 FGs), seven rebounds, five assists, three steals and four blocks in a 113-95 loss to the Pistons on Wednesday.

Barnes has enjoyed an excellent season, and he will enter the All-Star break on a high note, even if it wasn’t enough for the Raptors to get a win. This was his fourth game with at least four blocks over the past two weeks, and he has averaged 18.3 points, 9.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.3 steals and 2.8 blocks while shooting 54.4 percent from the floor during that stretch. After playing in the All-Star Game, Barnes will look to finish out the final two months of the regular season strong.
Jakob Poeltl

TOR Center #19

Jakob Poeltl returned to the lineup on Wednesday and contributed nine points (4-of-7 FGs) and six rebounds against the Pistons.

Poeltl suited up for the first time since December and was immediately back in the starting unit. He played 20 minutes and wasn’t productive, but it was a positive step to see him back out on the floor. It has been a rough season to this point for Poeltl, but he’ll get some time to rest more during the All-Star break. He’ll look to have a more productive final two months of the regular season.
Jakob Poeltl

TOR Center #19

Jakob Poeltl (back) is available for Wednesday’s game against the Pistons.

For the first time since December 21, Poeltl is available to play. He’s yet to come off the bench this season, so he’ll likely be in the starting lineup. However, the 7-footer will be under a minutes restriction, so fantasy managers should expect to still see plenty of Sandro Mamukelashvili.
Jakob Poeltl

TOR Center #19

According to Raptors reporter Omer Osman, Jakob Poeltl (back) is questionable for Wednesday’s matchup with the Pistons.

Poeltl could return to the court after nearly two months on the shelf, though he’ll surely be on a minutes restriction if he does. With Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) already ruled out, Sandro Mamukelashvili could be in line for big minutes.
Collin Murray-Boyles

TOR Forward #12

According to Raptors reporter Michael Grange, Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) is out for Wednesday’s matchup with the Pistons.

CMB aggravated a lingering injury in Sunday’s matchup with the Pacers, and it will keep him out against Detroit. If Jakob Poeltl (back) returns, he’ll likely face a minutes restriction and share playing time with Sandro Mamukelashvili. Mamukelashvili is worth streaming on Wednesday for fantasy managers in need of big man stats.
Trayce Jackson-Davis

TOR Forward #32

Trayce Jackson-Davis tallied 10 points (2-of-4 FGs, 6-of-10 FTs), 10 rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in Sunday’s win over the Pacers.

Jackson-Davis made the most of his debut appearance for the Raptors, recording a double-double. While 16 minutes aren’t a big deal for most players, TJD met or exceeded that number just 14 times with the Warriors this season before being traded. The issue moving forward is that the Raptors were shorthanded on Sunday: Jakob Poeltl (back) was out, and Collin Murray-Boyles left the game in the first half with a thumb injury. While Jackson-Davis played well, fantasy managers should not overreact.
RJ Barrett

TOR Forward-Guard #9

RJ Barrett recorded 20 points (7-of-15 FGs, 4-of-7 FTs), eight rebounds, five assists, one steal and two three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Pacers.

Back in the lineup after sitting out Thursday’s win over the Bulls, Barrett had a good afternoon against the Pacers. All that was missing from his stat line was a blocked shot. Unfortunately, Barrett’s fantasy value has tailed off after a hot start to the season. But, in fairness to him, there may have been too much expected of Barrett in terms of fantasy value. While days like Sunday are certainly possible, Carter is a better option in points leagues than category leagues.
Sandro Mamukelashvili

TOR Forward-Center #54

Sandro Mamukelashvili amassed 17 points (6-of-9 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in Sunday’s win over the Pacers.

With Jakob Poeltl (back) still out and Collin Murray-Boyles exiting before halftime after aggravating his left thumb injury, the Raptors needed a bit more from Mamukelashvili on Sunday. As has been the case multiple times this season, Mamu stepped up, and he’s scored at least 14 points in four consecutive games. Poeltl is getting closer to a return, but it’s challenging to envision a scenario in which Mamukelashvili falls off the radar entirely. He’s played that well in his first season in Toronto.
Scottie Barnes

TOR Forward-Guard #4

Scottie Barnes finished Sunday’s win over the Pacers with 25 points (12-of-20 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), 14 rebounds, six assists, two steals and four blocked shots.

The Raptors grabbed control of Sunday’s game with a dominant third quarter, and Barnes led the way. The All-Star forward shot 8-of-9 from the field in the period, doing most of his damage in the restricted area. Barnes finished with a robust stat line, giving fantasy managers a welcome boost to end Week 16. The Raptors, who only play three games in Week 17, are off until Wednesday night against the Pistons.
Collin Murray-Boyles

TOR Forward #12

Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) is out for the rest of Sunday’s game against the Pacers.

Murray-Boyles had been playing through a left thumb injury when he aggravated it during the first half of Sunday’s game. His early exit means that the Raptors will rely more on Sandro Mamukelashvili, with Trayce Jackson-Davis providing added depth in his first appearance for the team. Ja’Kobe Walter started the third quarter as the Raptors went without a center.
