• Raptors' RJ Barrett: Stays hot vs. Kings

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Barrett racked up 31 points (10-26 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 8-11 FT), nine rebounds, six assists and one steal in 40 minutes during Saturday's 131-128 overtime victory over Sacramento. Barrett turned in his third consecutive 30-plus point performance despite knocking down only 38.5 percent of his attempts from the field. He also contributed in a big way on the glass and as a distributor, resulting in a massive night across the board for fantasy managers. Expect the offense to continue to run through Barrett until Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) and Scottie Barnes (orbital) are cleared to return.

• Raptors' RJ Barrett: Double-doubles in loss

  3D ago • By RotoWire

  Barrett contributed 33 points (14-22 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and 12 assists in 32 minutes during Friday's 131-125 loss to the Lakers. Barrett recorded his first double-double of the season, although interestingly, he tallied double-digit assists as opposed to rebounds. While an injury delayed his start to the season, Barrett has hit the ground running, having now scored at least 30 points in consecutive games. Across three games, he is averaging 28.0 points to go with 4.7 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 3.0 three-pointers in 31.3 minutes per game. His assist numbers are sure to take a hit once the Raptors start getting healthy bodies back on the floor. However, until then, just sit back and enjoy the show.

• Raptors' RJ Barrett: Scores 20 points in season debut

  7D ago • By RotoWire

  Barrett provided 20 points (9-21 FG, 2-6 3Pt), five rebounds and three assists over 29 minutes during Monday's 127-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets. Barrett didn't have his best shooting numbers, though that's somewhat expected since he suffered an injury in the preseason and this was his first taste of competitive basketball. Even if his shot isn't falling, Barrett will remain a valuable asset in most formats as long as he can hover around the 20-point mark while posting solid peripheral stats in most games.

• Raptors' RJ Barrett: Deemed questionable for Monday

  9D ago • By RotoWire

  Barrett (shoulder) is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Nuggets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. Barrett has yet to suit up during the 2024-25 campaign and may miss his fourth consecutive regular-season game. If the 24-year-old is ruled out, Ochai Agbaji will likely get the start at small forward again, while Jamison Battle may receive an uptick in playing time.
