Toronto Raptors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Toronto Raptors forward/center Kelly Olynyk failed to complete Wednesday's game against Indiana due to a lower back strain. He logged only seven minutes, posting zero points with two rebounds and three fouls. This was Olynyk's third game in a Raptors uniform since the team traded for him last week. He started well in Toronto and averaged 14.0 points with 5.5 rebounds and 3.0 steals over his first two games. With the Raptors now off until Feb. 22, Olynyk gets a good amount of recovery time, but it's currently unclear if it will be enough to be ready for action next week. Chris Boucher re-entered the rotation in Olynyk's absence on Wednesday and could have a role to play if he's out next game.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett may miss Wednesday's matchup with Indiana. The 23-year-old didn't practice on Tuesday because of a personal issue and carries a questionable tag heading into Wednesday's contest. Barrett has played well since his trade from the Knicks, averaging a career-high 20.4 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.6 assists in 18 appearances with the Raptors. He's missed some time due to injury. But overall, fantasy managers are pleased with his production. Nonetheless, if Barrett isn't available in the final game heading into the All-Star break, Bruce Brown and Gradey Dick should benefit.

Toronto Raptors center Kelly Olynykhas been tagged as questionable to play in his first game with his new team after coming to Toronto in a trade from Utah. The veteran big man is a Toronto native who gets to team up with fellow Canadian RJ Barrett. They have some chemistry together already after playing for the Canadian national team. Olynyk will likely see an increase in minutes and role, as he'll be the primary backup to Jakob Poeltl, so he could become a more viable fantasy option in a broader range of leagues. For now, fantasy managers will want to wait and see how he falls into the rotation when he finally gets on the court for his new team.

Toronto Raptors guard Ochai Agbaji has been listed as questionable to make his debut with his new team on Friday. The 23-year-old was part of the deal that sent Kira Lewis Jr., Otto Porter Jr., and a first-round pick to the Jazz in return for Kelly Olynyk. This year, Agbaji was seeing around the same minutes per game, but his usage wasn't as high as his rookie year. With the Raptors, he'll likely see a boost in minutes while he plays a bigger role off of the bench for a rebuilding squad. He probably won't crack the starting lineup over guys like RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley, but there's a void in the backcourt that he can fill. He's only a viable fantasy option in very deep leagues at the moment.

Utah Jazz center Kelly Olynyk and guard Ochai Agbaji have been traded to the Toronto Raptors for Kira Lewis Jr., Otto Porter Jr., and a first-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft. The draft pick will be the least favorable between the Thunder, Clippers, Rockets, and Jazz. Olynyk should slot right into the backup center role behind Jakob Poeltl while Agbaji will likely be one of the first two players off of the bench in the backcourt along with newly-acquired Spencer Dinwiddie. Olynyk could become viable in deeper leagues after he averaged around 20 minutes a night in Utah, he could very likely see some added minutes in a less crowded frontcourt. Agbaji, on the other hand, will have to see where he falls in the rotation before becoming a must-add candidate in fantasy leagues.
