RJ Barrett News, Rumors, Updates - Toronto Raptors

Listed as questionable Barrett (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Hawks.

Impact Barrett was a late scratch Monday due to migraines and is in danger of missing a second straight game Wednesday. Josh Hart slid into the starting lineup in Barrett's absence versus Boston, but Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson handled increased usage. If Barrett is sidelined again, a similar situation would likely unfold Wednesday.

Downgraded to out Barrett (illness) will not play Monday against Boston, Marc J. Spears of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Barrett will be unable to suit up as he battles migraines. The Knicks will be shorthanded against a full strength Boston squad, putting extra pressure on Julius Randle and Jalen Brunson to produce offensively.

Now questionable due to illness Barrett (illness) is a game-time decision for Monday's game against Boston, Jared Weiss of The Athletic reports.

Impact Barrett's illness is late breaking news. If he's unable to go, Quentin Grimes, Donte DiVincenzo and Josh Hart would absorb his usage.

Scores 24 points in easy win Barrett amassed 24 points (9-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Sunday's 129-107 victory over Charlotte.

Impact Barrett has looked very good this season and has reached the 24-point mark in five of his first seven appearances. While he doesn't fill the stat sheet consistently in other categories, that shouldn't matter much, as Barrett's value is mainly tied to what he can do as a scorer.

Explodes for 26 points in return Barrett closed with 26 points (9-16 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds and four assists across 31 minutes during Monday's 111-97 victory over the Clippers.

Impact Barrett missed New York's first two games of November due to a knee injury, but he didn't seem inhibited by the issue Monday. The 23-year-old tied his season high in scoring with an efficient effort from the field and a perfect performance from the charity stripe. For good measure, Barrett finished well above his season averages in both boards and assists to round out arguably his best stat line of the season. The fifth-year pro hasn't shown the ability to put up this level of complementary stats on a consistent basis, so his fantasy value will likely remain centered on his scoring ability.
