Khem Birch - Remains out Tuesday Birch (nose) won't be available for Tuesday's game against the Heat, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

Impact Birch is continued to recover from the fractured nose he sustained Jan. 14 in Detroit, with injury ultimately requiring surgery. Assuming Birch has been able to maintain conditioning while he's been sidelined, he shouldn't face any major restrictions with his playing time when he's ultimately cleared to return. Prior to undergoing surgery, Birch had appeared in 23 games for Toronto while averaging 5.8 points, 5.2 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 21.0 minutes.

Fred VanVleet - Double-doubles in win VanVleet produced 16 points (6-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt), six rebounds, 11 assists and one block across 39 minutes during Monday's 106-100 win over Atlanta.

Impact VanVleet was 2-for-10 from inside the arc and is shooting just 35.7 percent from the field over his last 12 appearances. However, he has still averaged 22.1 points per game during that stretch due to his high-volume three-point shooting. He also dished out a team-high 11 assists Monday, notching his eighth double-double. His prolific three-point shooting and assist numbers offers fantasy managers a high floor, but VanVleet still has another level to get to if he can shake his recent shooting woes from inside the arc.

Gary Trent Jr. - Stays hot Monday Trent produced 31 points (10-22 FG, 9-15 3Pt, 2-4 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one steal across 41 minutes during Monday's 106-100 win over Atlanta.

Impact Trent made a season-high nine threes en route to his fourth straight game with at least 30 points. During that stretch, he is connecting on 50.0 percent of his 12.4 attempts per game from beyond the arc. The fourth-year guard has also registered at least one steal in each of his last six contests and has grabbed at least five rebounds in back-to-back games. He'll look to continue his hot shooting against the Heat on Tuesday.
