RJ Barrett's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (conditioning) and forward RJ Barrett (conditioning) are both probable for Tuesday's contest versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Following multi-game absences due to personal reasons, Quickley and Barrett have been ramping up and seem to have worked their way back in terms of conditioning. IQ has missed six straight, while Barrett has been out for eight in a row. The former New York Knicks will bolster fantasy rosters contending for championships upon their returns, with Quickley averaging 20.3 points, 8.0 assists, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.1 threes across 12 post-All-Star break games, and Barrett averaging 21.5 points, 5.1 dimes, 4.6 boards, and 2.1 treys on 53.1% shooting from deep through this period. Quickley has the better matchup of the two, as LA is giving up the third-most FanDuel points to opposing point guards.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (conditioning) won't return to the lineup on Sunday against Philadelphia. Barrett has rejoined the team after missing time due to his brother's death, but he will remain absent for a ninth straight game on Sunday, as the team has downgraded him from questionable to out. Barrett's absence has given Toronto an opportunity to start developing Gradey Dick with a bigger workload. He's in line to make an 11th straight start on Sunday. Dick is averaging 12.5 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.0 assists in the first unit.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (personal) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting 76ers. He's been out the last few weeks due to his brother's passing, and he just recently started practicing. Of course, Toronto can't make the playoffs, so Barrett doesn't need to rush back. But with Immanuel Quickley (personal), Scottie Barnes (hand), and Jakob Poeltl (hand) sidelined, Barrett could get more scoring opportunities than he had before his lengthy hiatus. On the other hand, if he's not back on Sunday, Gradey Dick and Gary Trent Jr. should remain Toronto's primary scoring contributors. There's also a chance for Garrett Temple, coming off a 15-point effort in Friday's blowout loss to the Knicks, to stay in the DFS value conversation.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (personal) participated in practice on Tuesday, and head coach Darko Rajakovic calls him day-to-day as Barrett gets his conditioning back after being away from the team for Toronto's last seven games. Wednesday's matchup against the New York Knicks marks the 23-year-old Canadian swingman's next chance to play, where Barrett should be considered questionable before the reeling Raptors release their official injury report. Gary Trent Jr. has steered the offense and been on a post-All-Star break surge, returning top-50 merit in nine-category fantasy leagues on averages of 19.1 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.3 steals, and 3.0 three-pointers in 32.9 minutes through his last 13 showings but next contends with a Knicks group yielding the fewest DraftKings points to opposing point guards.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (personal) won't play on Monday versus the Knicks. He remains out to mourn the unfortunate passing of his brother. But the Raptors have a slim chance of even making the Play-In, so it's reasonable to assume the former Knick won't be back for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign. With Immanuel Quickley (personal) also sidelined, Gradey Dick, coming off a 17-point performance on Saturday against the Wizards, will stay an attractive DFS value option.
