RJ Barrett Fantasy Stats

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett tied for the team lead with 15 points in Saturday's 129-105 preseason loss to the Miami Heat. He added three rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 17 minutes, shooting 3-for-9 from the field, 2-for-4 from three, and 7-for-8 at the line. The free-throw showing was encouraging after Barrett shot 71.7 percent there last season. Kawhi Leonard sat out as part of his preseason ramp-up, but Barrett will face more competition for touches when Leonard joins Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley in Toronto's rotation.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett has drawn trade interest in multi-team conversations, HoopsHype's Michael Scotto reports. The 2019 No. 3 pick is entering the final year of his deal at roughly $29.62 million, a clean expiring contract that makes him useful salary-matching in bigger trades. Barrett has averaged 20.5 points, 5.9 rebounds, and 4.3 assists since joining Toronto, but his scoring is woven into a crowded, expensive core alongside Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram. That logjam could cap his usage and keep his counting stats more solid than elite for fantasy. A move to a needier team could lift his volume, yet his name may surface more because of his matchable salary than any real push to deal him, since Toronto could just as easily keep or extend him.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett scored 24 points, nine rebounds, and three assists in 43 minutes during Friday's Game 6 overtime win over Cleveland, knocking down a go-ahead three in the final seconds to force a Game 7. He shot just 8-for-21 overall but stayed aggressive, continuing a strong series with consistent scoring volume. Barrett remains a high-usage option heading into the deciding game. Scottie Barnes and Ja'Kobe Walter helped carry the load, but the ball still finds Barrett when Toronto needs a bucket, especially in crunch time.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett continued his fantastic series against the Cleveland Cavaliers with his first double-double of the season in Wednesday's 125-120 loss, posting game highs with 25 points and 12 rebounds. He also registered five assists in 38 minutes, going 9-for-19 from the field with a 2-for-5 record from three-point range. With Brandon Ingram (heel) struggling in the postseason, Barrett has really stepped up his game. He leads Toronto in scoring with 24.4 points per game and in rebounding with 7.2 per game. Additionally, Barrett has averaged 3.8 assists and 1.0 steals, making 46.2 percent of his three-point attempts. Ingram might be completely out of the lineup for Game 6 after exiting early on Wednesday, potentially allowing Barrett to have an even greater impact.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (shoulder) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against Detroit and is expected to play through left shoulder soreness. The 25-year-old has averaged 18.8 points, 1.4 three-pointers, 4.0 rebounds, and 4.0 assists in 27.5 minutes over his last five games and should continue handling significant usage with Immanuel Quickley (foot) sidelined. Barrett also delivered 24 points, three rebounds, three assists, and three steals in 27 minutes Sunday. Jamal Shead and Scottie Barnes should continue sharing playmaking duties, but Barrett remains a must-start option for points and secondary assists.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (shoulder) will play in Sunday's contest against the Orlando Magic. He injured his left shoulder during Friday's win over New Orleans and was initially listed as questionable on the injury report. He was then upgraded to probable, and Toronto has now listed Barrett as available. Barrett has been sharp over his last 10 outings, averaging 20.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.0 assists, hitting nearly 52 percent of his field-goal attempts.

Trade talks regarding Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis have continued this week with a connection to the Toronto Raptors still developing. According to Michael Scotto of HoopsHype, the framework of a trade for Sabonis would revolve around Raptors guards RJ Barrett and Ochai Agbaji. The potential for a third team to join in on the trade may still be needed in order to help with the financial side of things. Sabonis is Sacramento's best remaining trade chip, though he's had a bit of a down season due to injury. The 29-year-old has consistently been linked to the Raptors this season and would be a great help to keep Toronto near the top of the Eastern Conference.

Toronto Raptors forward RJ Barrett (ankle) will play on Friday against Portland. He's missed the last seven games because of a sprained ankle. While the former Duke Blue Devil will probably be limited in his first game back from the extended layoff, he'll return to his usual role in the starting lineup. Barrett was averaging 19.6 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 3.7 assists before going down with the injury, giving him upside for fantasy managers despite the chance of a reduced workload. With Barrett on the court, Jamal Shead will head back to the bench after logging 12.9 points and 7.6 dimes in seven appearances with the first five.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game in Portland, a step forward as he works toward a potential return. Barrett's availability directly impacts the backcourt rotation, as Jamal Shead would likely slide back to the second unit if Barrett plays. Shead has been productive lately, averaging 10.8 points, 2.8 rebounds, 7.2 assists, and 1.2 steals in 31.8 minutes over his last five, though on a shaky 34.8 percent from the field. Fantasy managers should view Shead as a short-term standard-league option only if Barrett remains sidelined.

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (ankle) is still not ready to return from a sprained left ankle, and he'll miss his seventh straight game on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings. Barrett still hasn't been given a timeline for his return, and he should be considered questionable for Friday's matchup with the Trail Blazers. With Ja'Kobe Walter (hip) also out of action, Jamal Shead and Grady Dick will continue to carry a heavier workload during tonight's clash.
