Toronto Raptors forward/center Chris Boucher (knee) has received a questionable tag while dealing with a right knee contusion. The silver lining is that the 31-year-old has been able to suit up in both of the team's last two games, so it's unclear how severe the knee contusion is right now. Fantasy managers will want to check back after an hour or so before tipoff. If he's able to play, Boucher should get plenty of minutes since Jakob Poeltl (hand) is out indefinitely. In his last two games, Boucher has provided a solid amount of points, rebounds, threes, and blocks, so he could provide a good boost to managers who are in the fantasy playoffs. Kelly Olynyk and Jalen McDaniels will see more minutes if Boucher can't play though.
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Bruce Brown (knee) has been tagged as questionable against the Denver Nuggets on Monday. The veteran wing hasn't played in the last four games while he deals with right knee inflammation. His return would give the lineup a much-needed boost while they're missing two important starters in Scottie Barnes (hand) and Jakob Poeltl (hand). On top of that, they could be without RJ Barrett (illness) who's questionable. If Brown can play, he'll likely get plenty of opportunities on a short-handed roster. If he's unable to suit up along with Barrett, Gradey Dick and Gary Trent Jr. should both remain in the starting lineup and are quality streaming options.
Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (illness) is suffering from an illness and has been tagged as questionable for their Monday night game. The Duke product was forced to miss their last game against the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday, so the illness may linger enough to keep him out of at least one more game. If he can suit up, Barrett has turned himself into an automatic fantasy starter since joining the Raptors back in December. On the other hand, if he's sidelined for one more game, Immanuel Quickley will likely play some big minutes while Gary Trent Jr. and Gradey Dick will remain in the starting five as long as Bruce Brown (knee) also doesn't play.
Sacramento Kings guard Davion Mitchell (chest) has been upgraded from questionable to available for Sunday's clash with Houston. He was initially iffy for the game with right chest soreness. Mitchell's role has fluctuated throughout the campaign, and he doesn't carry a lot of fantasy value if De'Aaron Fox is in the lineup. The 25-year-old has averaged 4.4 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 1.7 assists in 13.5 minutes over the course of the season.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley put together his best game as a distributor so far in his young NBA career. During the 120-113 loss to the Phoenix Suns, Quickley dropped 21 points to go along with 18 dimes, nine rebounds, one steal, and two turnovers. His previous best in assists was 15 in an overtime game back in December 2022. The former Knick has seen increases across the board in all of his traditional stats since being traded to the Raptors. He's finally become a consistent starter and has rewarded fantasy managers with some great games so far. In the 28 games in Toronto, he's averaging 17.5 points, 6.5 assists, 4.7 rebounds, and 1.5 turnovers per game.
