Miami Heat center Orlando Robinson (back) has been tagged as questionable ahead of the Monday matchup against the Sacramento Kings. The 23-year-old hasn't played in the team's last two games and has been seeing very inconsistent minutes this season. The Heat could need all hands on deck Monday night, however, as they'll be missing Jimmy Butler, Thomas Bryant, and Nikola Jovic to suspensions while two more starters are listed as questionable. If Robinson can play, he might be a streaming option in deeper leagues, but that won't be known until tipoff approaches. If he's unable to play, Bam Adebayo and Kevin Love will have to split all of the minutes at center.
Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Raptors have decided to take a cautious approach after Mitchell played 29 minutes during their last game. As a result, Jordan Nwora will move into the starting five for the second straight night. A move to the starting unit will boost his fantasy value but there should still be better options available on a 10-game slate. Bruce Brown should have an increased role off the bench with Barrett sidelined.
Toronto Raptors wing RJ Barrett (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks. The 23-year-old played 29 minutes in the Raptors' 121-93 win over the Nets last night, contributing 12 points, five rebounds, and seven assists. Should Toronto opt to rest him on the second night of a back-to-back, Bruce Brown is expected to see increased minutes. Barrett has been averaging 20.1 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.7 assists in 33.5 minutes per game with Toronto.
Toronto Raptors center Kelly Olynyk (back) is absent from the injury report for Thursday's game versus the Brooklyn Nets. A lower back strain forced Olynyk from Toronto's latest matchup, but the Canadian playmaking big man is available for the Raptors against the Nets. Over his most recent nine showings since Jan. 25, Olynyk is supplying 10.1 points on 57.7% shooting from the floor, 5.2 boards, 4.2 assists, and 0.9 triples in 19.5 minutes per game.
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes contributed 16 points off the bench as the Eastern Conference dominated the All-Star Game on Sunday, winning 211-186. Making his first All-Star appearance, Barnes shot 7-for-10 from the field with two makes from downtown and picked up eight rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 18 minutes. Barnes was one of four All-Star Game debutants in 2024, along with Jalen Brunson, Tyrese Maxey, and Paolo Banchero, who all suited up for the East. The 22-year-old forward has become a centerpiece for the Raptors and should have a huge finish to 2023-24. Entering the All-Star break, Barnes averaged a near triple-double over a four-game stretch, which could be a sign of things to come.
