Christian Koloko - Abundant defensive production Koloko amassed five points (2-5 FG, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, two assists, four blocks and two steals across 20 minutes during Friday's 118-97 victory over Detroit.
Impact Koloko was a force on the defensive end Friday, racking up six combined steals and blocks, cobbling together his best game since November. With Precious Achiuwa (hamstring) sidelined and the game descending into garbage time, Koloko made the most of his time on the floor. While this was great for anyone who happened to stream him in, it is not something we should expect to see happen again anytime soon.

Malachi Flynn - Plays 17 minutes in win Flynn had five points (1-8 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one block across 17 minutes during Friday's 118-97 win over the Pistons.
Impact Flynn remained a relevant piece for the Raptors but failed to make the most of his opportunity. He has been in and out of the rotation for most of the season, playing only when injuries to other players allow. Even as the primary backup, Flynn is not worth picking up in fantasy outside of deeper formats.

Chris Boucher - Thrives in blowout victory Boucher racked up 19 points (7-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 29 minutes during Friday's 118-97 win over the Pistons.
Impact Boucher played in excess of 25 minutes for the second straight game, taking advantage of the fact the game was a blowout. The Raptors were also without a couple of key pieces, affording Boucher an enlarged role. While he has been a disappointment for much of the season, Boucher is worth a look as long as the team is down on troops.

Joe Wieskamp - Downgraded to out Wieskamp (hamstring) won't play in Friday's game versus the Pistons, Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun reports.
Impact Wieskamp will miss his second straight game with a right hamstring injury. His next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Washington.
MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Scottie Barnes - Won't take floor Friday Barnes (wrist) has been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Pistons, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Impact Barnes is scheduled for his second consecutive absence while dealing with a wrist issue, leaving the Raptors shorthanded with Gary Trent (elbow) and a handful of others also sidelined Friday. Will Barton will collect his second consecutive start, which happens to be his second start of the season as well, in Barnes' stead.
MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Precious Achiuwa - Out again Achiuwa (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pistons, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Achiuwa will miss back-to-back games due to right hamstring soreness. Gary Trent (elbow) and Scottie Barnes (wrist) also remain out, so Will Barton will draw another start and Chris Boucher figures to see increased usage again.
MARCH 24, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Gary Trent Jr. - Unavailable Friday Trent (elbow) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Pistons, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Impact Trent was questionable ahead of Friday's matchup and will be unavailable for a second consecutive game due to his sore right elbow. Will Barton and Malachi Flynn should continue to see increased run for the Raptors on Friday.

Joe Wieskamp - Questionable against Detroit Wieskamp (hamstring) is questionable for Friday's game versus the Pistons, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact Wieskamp is in danger of missing his second straight game due to a hamstring injury. However, his potential absence shouldn't affect Toronto's rotation.
MARCH 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Dalano Banton - Remains sidelined Friday Banton (thumb) is out for Friday's game versus the Pistons, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.
Impact Banton will miss his 12th straight game Friday due to a sprained thumb. His next chance to suit up is Sunday's matchup with Washington.

Jeff Dowtin Jr. - Gets light run Wednesday Dowtin (ankle) played six minutes off the bench Wednesday in the Raptors' 118-114 loss to the Pacers, finishing with two points (1-1 FG) and no other statistics.
Impact Dowtin, one of Toronto's two two-way players, missed the G League Raptors 905's most recent game Tuesday against the College Park Skyhawks due to a listed right ankle injury, but he was able to play through the issue for the shorthanded NBA squad Wednesday. Toronto ruled out six players due to injury ahead of the contest, enabling Dowtin to handle a light role off the bench behind backcourt starters Fred VanVleet and Will Barton. So long as Toronto gets one of Scottie Barnes (wrist) or Gary Trent (elbow) back for Friday's game against the Pistons, Dowtin could find himself back outside of head coach Nick Nurse's rotation.
