  • Raptors' Will Barton: Scores 20 in victory

    Barton posted 20 points (7-12 FG, 6-9 3Pt), one rebound, two assists and one steal in 20 minutes during Tuesday's 120-100 win over the Hornets.

    Barton returned from a three-game absence Tuesday and was productive off the bench, posting his third-highest scoring total of the season with an efficient performance from beyond the arc. However, Tuesday's matchup marked the first time he had scored in double figures since Feb. 6, and he's averaged just 4.2 points in 12.4 minutes per game over his last 14 appearances.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Good to go against Charlotte

    Barton (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Hornets.

    Barton has been upgraded from probable to available Tuesday after missing the previous three games with an ankle injury. However, he is unlikely to see enough playing time to warrant serious fantasy interest.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Probable Tuesday

    Barton (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Hornets.

    Barton has missed the last three games due to his ankle injury but will likely be able to return to action for the first half of a back-to-back set Tuesday. Over 11 appearances in March, he averaged 3.0 points in 13.1 minutes per game.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Downgraded to questionable

    Barton (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Sunday's game in Charlotte.

    Barton had been listed as "probable" on the initial injury report, but now it appears there's a chance he'll be spending his third straight game on the sidelines. If he can't give it a go, there will be more minutes available for Jeff Dowtin, and perhaps Dalano Banton will be able to enter the rotation.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Ruled out Sunday

    Barton (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

    Barton will miss his third straight game, while Gary Trent (back) will miss his sixth in a row. Barton is expected back for Tuesday's rematch against Charlotte, but Trent is still iffy for that game, which falls on the front end of a back-to-back.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Probable Sunday

    Barton (ankle) is considered probable for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.

    Barton has missed the Raptors' previous two games due to a sprained ankle. While he seems to be trending toward a return, his final status Sunday will depend on how he is feeling closer to tip-off.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Out Friday

    Barton (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the 76ers, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.

    As expected, Barton has been downgraded from doubtful to out and will be sidelined for a second straight game. With Gary Trent (elbow) also out, Chris Boucher and Jeff Dowtin are candidates for increased roles off the bench.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Downgraded to doubtful

    Barton (ankle) has been downgraded to doubtful for Friday's game against Philadelphia.

    Barton was initially questionable for Friday's matchup, but it seems likely that he'll be unavailable for a second consecutive game due to his left ankle sprain. Chris Boucher would likely continue to see increased run if both Barton and Gary Trent (elbow) are out.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Iffy against Philadelphia

    Barton (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game versus the 76ers, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

    Barton is in danger of missing his second straight game Friday due to a left ankle sprain. If he's ruled out, his next chance to suit up will be Sunday's matchup with Charlotte.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Officially ruled out

    Barton (ankle) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Heat.

    Barton has been downgraded from doubtful to out Tuesday due to an ankle injury he suffered against Washington. With Gary Trent (elbow) considered doubtful, Jeff Dowtin and Malachi Flynn are candidates to receive increased roles. Barton's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with Philadelphia.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Unlikely to play Tuesday

    Barton (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Heat, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    Barton left Sunday's game after spraining his ankle and didn't practice Monday, so it's not surprising to see the veteran forward unlikely to play Tuesday. If Gary Trent (elbow) is also ruled out, Jeff Dowtin and Malachi Flynn would be candidates for increased roles in the backcourt.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Doesn't practice Monday

    Barton (ankle) didn't participate in Monday's practice session, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

    While Barton was unable to practice a day after suffering a left ankle sprain, head coach Nick Nurse downplayed the severity of the injury and said he doesn't expect the 32-year-old to be out long. Whether Barton will be available Tuesday against Miami remains to be seen, but it seems likely that he'll be back in action before too long.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Exits with left ankle sprain

    Barton won't return to Sunday's game against the Wizards due to a left ankle sprain, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

    The 32-year-old moved to the bench for Sunday's matchup since Scottie Barnes was available, and Barton totaled two points (1-1 FG), one rebound, one assist and one steal in four minutes prior to his departure in the first half. While he'll be unavailable down the stretch, it's not yet clear whether he'll be able to suit up Tuesday against Miami.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Not starting Sunday

    Barton isn't starting Sunday's game against the Wizards, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.

    Barton made back-to-back starts with the Raptors banged up, but he'll retreat to a bench role with Scottie Barnes available again. Across 11 appearances off the bench for Toronto, Barton has averaged 3.5 points in just 11.7 minutes per game.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Starting Wednesday

    Barton will join the first unit for Wednesday's game against the Pacers, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.

    Barton will make his first start in a Raptors uniform Wednesday with Scottie Barnes (wrist) and Gary Trent (elbow) sidelined. In his first game with Toronto Barton scored 15 points and nabbed six rebounds over 27 minutes but has averaged just 2.4 points and 1.2 rebounds in 10.2 minutes per game since. Expect him to hold a role closer to his first outing Wednesday.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Fails to score in 13 minutes

    Barton totaled zero points (0-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists over 13 minutes during Sunday's 118-111 loss to the Bucks.

    While Barton has been able to play minutes on a regular basis since arriving in Toronto, he remains well off the fantasy radar, even in deeper formats. His decline has been something to behold, going from a top-90 player last season to outside the top 300 in 2022-23. Clearly, managers need not waste their time paying any attention to the situation in Toronto.

  • Raptors' Will Barton: Vanishing act continues in win

    Barton finished Thursday's 128-111 win over the Thunder with three points (1-6 FG, 1-4 3Pt) and one rebound over 11 minutes.

    Barton played just 11 minutes in the win, continuing what has been a rapid fall from grace this season. Even a recent trade to Toronto has done nothing to improve his fantasy appeal, now sitting well outside the top 300 for the season. Quite clearly, he should not be on the radar in any format.
