Raptors' Gradey Dick: Shooting woes from deep Thursday
Gradey Dick ended with nine points (4-9 FG, 1-4 3Pt), six rebounds, two steals and one assist in 34 minutes during Thursday's 110-105 victory over Minnesota.Dick struggled from beyond the arc once again, and in his last four outings since scoring a career-high 32 points against the Bucks on Nov. 12, he has shot only 24.0 percent from outside. The second-year swingman has also averaged 12.3 points, 4.3 rebounds and 2.3 assists across 35.3 minutes per game in that same four-game span. Dick has six games with 20-plus points thus far, though he will likely see a decrease in usage with the return of Scottie Barnes (eye).

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Erupts for career-high 32
Gradey Dick contributed 32 points (7-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 14-16 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 99-85 loss to the Bucks.The second-year guard set a new career scoring high on the night, but Dick got very little help from an injury-depleted Toronto Raptors roster as only two of his teammates even scored in double digits. Dick has fired home multiple threes in nine of the last 10 games, averaging 21.7 points, 2.8 boards, 2.8 threes, 2.7 assists and 1.2 steals over that stretch, but it's still not clear what his usage will look like once the likes of Scottie Barnes (orbital bone) and Immanuel Quickley (elbow) are back in action.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Regresses in loss
Gradey Dick racked up seven points (3-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 122-107 loss to the Kings.Dick lost his shot Wednesday evening, ending a torrid streak of scoring to begin the season. Prior to Wednesday's loss, he averaged 24.8 points over a six-game span and averaged 27 points per game on the road during that period. Compared to his results this season, Dick's performance should be considered an outlier, but Immanuel Quickley's (pelvis) return will reveal how Dick will be utilized in the future.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Leads team with 26 points
Gradey Dick ended Monday's 121-119 loss to Denver with 26 points (10-20 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists, two blocks and three steals in 36 minutes.Dick will be hard to bench after a red-hot start, and it appears he will have a firm hold as the top man at off-guard this season. The Toronto Raptors are hampered by injuries, but their trajectory will be intriguing when their first unit is completely healthy. Through eight games, Dick is averaging 21.6 points, 2.3 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Another 30-point game
Gradey Dick contributed 31 points (13-26 FG, 5-11 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 131-125 loss to the Lakers.Dick scored a career-high 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT) in Minnesota on Oct. 26, bested that mark with 30 points (11-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT) in Charlotte on Wednesday and topped himself once again Friday. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis), Scottie Barnes (orbital), Bruce Brown (knee) and Kelly Olynyk (back) all out, Dick should continue to have the green light for the rebuilding Toronto Raptors. The soon-to-be 21-year-old is the youngest Raptor ever to record back-to-back 30-point games.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores career-high 30 points
Gradey Dick fouled out of Wednesday's 138-133 loss to the Hornets after recording 30 points (11-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), two rebounds, one assist and three steals across 36 minutes.Dick delivered the best scoring performance of his young career before fouling out, and the second-year guard is performing at a high level while doing an excellent job of handling a more significant role on offense. Dick has reached the 15-point mark in all but one of his five appearances and has reached the 20-point mark in two of his last three, so his scoring exploits have been enough to keep him relevant across all fantasy formats. He's also shooting 48.5 percent from the field, which represents an upgrade compared to his rookie year in 2023-24.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Team option exercised
The Toronto Raptors exercised the 2025-26 team option on Gradey Dick's contract Tuesday, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.After a modest rookie season, Dick has shown glimpses of a potential breakout season in Year 2, scoring at least 15 points in three of the first four regular-season contests while averaging 2.3 made three-pointers per game. However, it's worth noting that the sharpshooter's increased field-goal attempts are likely due to RJ Barrett (shoulder), Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) and Scottie Barnes (eye) all missing time due to injuries to begin the season. With the transaction, Dick is under contract through the 2025-26 campaign.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 15 points in OT loss
Gradey Dick produced 15 points (5-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, four assists and one block in 37 minutes during Monday's 127-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets.Dick's overall numbers haven't been eye-popping, but the second-year shooting guard has started the season on a strong note. Considering that most of his fantasy upside will be tied to what he can do as a scorer, and mainly a shooter, the fact that he's scored at least 15 points in three of his first four appearances is encouraging. In comparison, Dick accomplished that feat only 12 times in 60 games as a rookie. The second-year shooter is making just 34.6 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc this season, but the positive signs are there even if the percentages are not.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 16 in blowout loss
Gradey Dick finished Wednesday's 136-106 loss to the Cavaliers with 16 points (5-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 29 minutes.Dick should be the Toronto Raptors' starting shooting guard all season long and go through the growing pains of adjustment on a rebuilding squad. His fantasy relevance will depend primarily on his shot volume and efficiency, since he doesn't project to be a stat-sheet stuffer. He wasn't especially efficient Wednesday against a strong defense, but it was encouraging enough that he played 29 minutes and took 13 shots.
