Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (eye) will be re-evaluated in three weeks after sustaining a right orbital fracture in Monday's overtime loss to the Denver Nuggets. It's a tough blow for the Raptors, considering the team just had RJ Barrett (shoulder) make his 2024-25 debut. It's also rough for Barnes' fantasy managers, especially since he averaged 19.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 2.0 steals in his first four games. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) still without a return date, Barrett, Gradey Dick, and Jakob Poeltl should do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end. Fantasy managers can also consider Ochai Agbaji and Davion Mitchell for streaming purposes until Quickley or Barnes are back on the floor.
Toronto Raptors forward/center Kelly Olynyk (back) will remain out for Wednesday's meeting with Charlotte. The veteran big man has yet to play this season due to a back problem. Olynyk's absence has allowed Chris Boucher to hold down a regular spot in the rotation. He has notched 7.5 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.5 blocks in 17.3 minutes. Jonathan Mogbo and Bruno Fernando also benefit from Olynyk's absence. With Scottie Barnes (eye) joining Olynyk and Bruce Brown (knee) on the shelf Wednesday, the second unit could have an even larger role to play versus the Hornets.
Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) is doubtful heading into Wednesday's game versus the Hornets. The former Knick had 13 points, four assists, and one steal in the opener against Cleveland. However, he exited that one after just 14 minutes because of a pelvic contusion and has been on the shelf since. With Scottie Barnes (eye) out, RJ Barrett, who made his 2024-25 debut on Monday night, should pick up some of the slack offensively. Davion Mitchell, averaging 8.0 points, 5.7 assists, and 45.5% shooting from deep in three starts this season, is worth streaming as long as Quickley is officially ruled out.
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (eye) won't play in Wednesday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. The 23-year-old had a stellar showing in Monday's overtime loss to the Nuggets, finishing with 21 points, 12 boards, nine assists, and five steals. However, he exited the contest after taking an elbow to the face by Nikola Jokic. It's not good news for Toronto, considering RJ Barrett just returned from a shoulder injury. With Immanuel Quickly (pelvis) doubtful, Barrett should pick up some slack offensively. At the same time, Gradey Dick, Ochai Agbaji, and Davion Mitchell are viable streaming options.
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (head) missed the end of Monday's matchup against Denver. He exited the contest in the final minutes of the fourth quarter after taking an elbow to the face by Nikola Jokic. Jokic and the Nuggets ended up beating Toronto 127-125 in overtime. It was an unfortunate ending to a good night for Barnes, as he tallied a team-high 21 points with 12 rebounds, nine assists, five steals, and one block. His exit on Monday leaves a question mark over Barnes for Wednesday's match against Charlotte. If he's out, Ochai Agbaji could get back into the starting lineup. RJ Barrett's return to action pushed him to the second unit on Monday.
