Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) participated in practice on Tuesday, with head coach Darko Rajakovic deeming Quickley day-to-day as he ramps back up after being away from the team for Toronto's past four contests. The 24-year-old combo guard aims to return for Wednesday's tilt versus the New York Knicks, and the 23-49 Raptors will submit official injury designations later on Tuesday. Quickley was rolling before his absence began, averaging 20.3 points, 8.0 dimes, 5.8 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 3.1 threes covering 12 post-All-Star break games. Bruce Brown and Javon Freeman-Liberty have split work in the starting backcourt in IQ's stead, but neither of the two have separated much in terms of becoming a worthwhile fantasy streamer.
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 guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't suit up for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has missed the last three games with a personal issue, so his next chance to return will be on Wednesday versus the visiting Knicks, his former team. In the meantime, Bruce Brown could see the most work at the one. Of course, with RJ Barrett (personal) still out, Gary Trent Jr., Gradey Dick, and Kelly Olynyk should remain the guys on the roster with the most fantasy potential.
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.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (personal) won't play on Saturday in Washington. He's dealing with a family matter, so he'll miss a third consecutive contest. Scottie Barnes (hand) and Kelly Olynyk (finger) have been sidelined. But with RJ Barrett (personal) also ruled out, Gary Trent Jr. (back), Kelly Olynyk, and Gradey Dick are the favorites to lead the way on the scoring end versus Washington. Bruce Brown is likely to remain starting at the one spot. However, he's not always the most dependable offensive option.
