GRADEY DICK NEWS

Moves to starting unit Dick moved into the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Trail Blazers after RJ Barrett (illness) was announced as a late scratch.

Impact Dick will make just the second start of his NBA career here. In the previous one, he finished with 11 points, two assists and a steal while going 1-for-6 from three-point range. The rookie out of Kansas has been playing well of late, though, scoring in double digits in five of his last seven appearances off the bench while hitting 42.1 percent of his threes in that span.

Sinks four triples in loss Dick registered 12 points (4-12 FG, 4-10 3Pt) and two rebounds over 31 minutes during Thursday's 120-113 loss to the Suns.

Impact Over his last 14 appearances, the rookie is averaging 11.4 points on 52.1 percent shooting, including 46.5 percent from deep. With Scottie Barners (hand) and Bruce Brown (knee) sidelined, there should be plenty of minutes available for Dick during the stretch run. However, Dick likely has to find ways to contribute defensively if he's going to make an impact in standard fantasy leagues.

Shooting prowess on display Dick supplied 18 points (7-9 FG, 4-4 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 23 minutes during Monday's 130-122 win over the Pacers.

Impact Dick caught fire from beyond the arc, representing his fourth game this season with four made threes. The rookie is now shooting 38.2 percent from deep on the year. Dick brings an ideal off-ball skillset to complement Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley. Additionally, he co-existed with trade-deadline addition Ochai Agbaji (13 points, 20 minutes) Monday, showcasing that there is statistical output to go around.

Pops for 18 off bench Dick ended Friday's 123-121 win over Atlanta with 18 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in 22 minutes off the bench.

Impact Jordan Nwora got the start Friday with RJ Barrett (knee) sidelined, but it was Dick who benefitted most from the absence. The rookie guard led the Toronto bench in scoring on a night when eight different Raptors scored in double digits. Dick is beginning to get his shot off consistently in the NBA, making at least one three-pointer in eight straight games and averaging 12.3 points and 2.4 threes in 21.1 minutes a contest while shooting 56.7 percent from the floor and 50.0 percent (19-for-38) from long distance. As yet however, the 20-year-old offers little else as a fantasy asset.

Gets buckets Monday Dick produced 18 points (7-10 FG, 4-5 3Pt) and two rebounds over 22 minutes during Monday's 122-99 loss to San Antonio.

Impact Dick posted a team-high 18 points, although it was a dismal affair for Toronto's offense Monday. The rookie lost a few battles to Victor Wembanyama at the rim, but he matched his season-high with four made triples and has now knocked down multiple threes in five straight games.

Leading scorer off bench in loss Dick had 14 points (4-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT) and one assist in 22 minutes during Saturday's 119-95 loss to Cleveland.

Impact Dick led all bench players in Saturday's contest in scoring while connecting on a team-best trio of threes over just 22 minutes off the bench in a losing effort. Dick has tallied three or more threes in five games this season while reaching double figures in scoring in six outings.

Scores career-high 22 Dick amassed 22 points (9-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 30 minutes during Monday's 138-100 loss to the Pelicans.

Impact Dick posted the first 20-point game of his young career, and he has appeared much more comfortable in the Raptors' tempo and offensive flow of late. Trading Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby created a less stressful environment for the rookie to grow, so Dick could begin flashing talent at a higher frequency down the stretch of the season.

Makes three treys Saturday Dick supplied 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one steal across 16 minutes during Saturday's 126-100 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Dick scored in double digits just for the third time this season, and the rookie sharpshooter made the most of his minutes off the bench. However, his role has been too inconsistent to make him a viable option in most formats, though he still carries value as a stash option in dynasty formats.

Good to go Wednesday Dick (thumb) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Heat.

Out Monday Dick (thumb) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Celtics.

Uncertain to play Monday Dick is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Celtics with a right thumb sprain.

Impact Dick is nursing the injury after he played 12 minutes -- his most since Nov. 21 -- in the Raptors' 145-113 loss to the Jazz on Friday. The rookie first-round pick hasn't typically been included in the rotation even when healthy, so any potential absence Monday due to the injury would likely go largely unnoticed.
