Toronto Raptors DVOA, Stats, & NBA Rankings

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (hand) will play in Friday's matchup against the Utah Jazz. Initially, there was concern he might miss a second consecutive game when the team listed him as questionable on the injury report. Fortunately, he has made a swift recovery from a hand sprain. Barnes enters Friday's game with three double-doubles over his last four outings. This stretch includes a fantastic performance against the Jazz a week ago, where he posted 22 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, three blocks, and two steals.

Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (rest) will watch Friday's game against the Utah Jazz from the sidelines as he's been ruled out for rest. Both teams are competing for better odds in the NBA Draft lottery so they've decided to list almost everyone on the injury report. With Jonathan Mogbo (nasal) also ruled out, Orlando Robinson and Colin Castleton seem poised to take on the minutes at center. During their last game against the Philadelphia 76ers, Castleton got the starting nod and registered seven points, 14 rebounds, two assists, and three blocks. Robinson had a solid night as well with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and six assists. Both would be great streaming options for big man stats in category leagues.

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (hand) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. Barnes sat out of Wednesday's contest after aggravating his right hand injury. His absence resulted in Jamison Battle, Jared Rhoden, and Garrett Temple seeing more playing time in the rotation. Between the three, Rhoden is looking like the best fantasy option after finishing with 25 points and 12 rebounds during Wednesday's game.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Ochai Agbaji (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The team has updated Agbaji's status from doubtful to out as the 24-year-old continues to be sidelined due to a left ankle sprain. Agbaji's next opportunity to play will be on Friday against the Utah Jazz. The Raptors are going to be extremely shorthanded for Wednesday's contest, making the likes of Jamal Shead, A.J. Lawson, and Jared Rhoden viable fantasy options.

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (hand) won't play on Wednesday against Philadelphia. The 23-year-old has averaged 19.6 points, 7.9 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.5 steals, and 1.1 blocks this season. While his three-point shooting needs work, his absence will open the door for others to get more involved. With RJ Barrett (personal), Immanuel Quickley (rest), Gradey Dick (knee), Brandon Ingram (ankle), Ja'Kobe Walter (hip), and Ochai Agbaji (ankle) also sidelined, the team will need to rely more on Jakob Poeltl, Orlando Robinson, Jamison Battle, Chris Boucher, A.J. Lawson, and Jared Rhoden versus the 76ers, a team that has won four of their last five contests.
