Kelly Olynyk - Agrees to extension with Toronto Olynyk agreed to a two-year, $26.25 million extension with the Raptors on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Impact Following a trade out of Utah, the 32-year-old Canadian has -- perhaps unsurprisingly -- fit in well in Toronto, posting averages of 9.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, 2.9 assists and 1.6 steals per game on 46.0 percent shooting over his first nine appearances as a Raptor. He'll remain with his hometown team for at least another two years, and with Jakob Poeltl (finger) going down, Olynyk will likely be in the starting lineup Tuesday.

Bruce Brown - Won't play Tuesday Brown (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Impact Brown's role has diminished since the All-Star break, and he'll now miss a second straight game due to right knee inflammation. Ochai Agbaji started in Brown's absence Sunday and played 33 minutes, while Jordan Nwora and D.J. Carton factored into the rotation off the bench. Brown's next chance to suit up will come Thursday in Phoenix, but at this point, he doesn't have much fantasy value in standard leagues.

Jahmi'us Ramsey - Inks 10-day deal with Toronto Ramsey has agreed to a 10-day deal with the Raptors, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Impact Ramsey has put in averages of 20.6 points, 7.8 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game in the G League this season, so it'll be interesting to see if he can find meaningful minutes in Toronto with the Raptors banged up. He's worth monitoring in deep leagues, but for now, he's safe to leave on the waiver wire in most formats.

Jakob Poeltl - Won't play Tuesday Poeltl (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Impact Poeltl dislocated his left pinky during Sunday's win over the Hornets and will miss at least one additional game. Kelly Olynyk started the second half of Sunday's contest in Poeltl's absence and should see an increased role again Tuesday. Poeltl's next chance to suit up will come Thursday in Phoenix.

Impact Gueye has been a standout in the G League for the 905, averaging 14.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.5 blocks. With Scottie Barnes (wrist) out indefinitely, Gueye could get some reps with Toronto to close out the season.

Impact Getting the start in place of Scottie Barnes (hand), Agbaji had the best performance of his career on the glass while scoring in double digits for the third time in the last five games. The second-year wing figures to have a much bigger role over the coming weeks while Barnes is sidelined, but he'll need to improve his efficiency if he's going to provide consistent fantasy value.

Immanuel Quickley - Double-double against Charlotte Quickley ended with 22 points (6-14 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 8-8 FT), seven rebounds and 11 assists in 36 minutes during Sunday's 111-106 win over the Hornets.
Impact The fourth-year guard produced his second straight double-double, this one coming without Scottie Barnes (hand) in the lineup. Quickley's usage figures to rise while Barnes is sidelined, but his numbers were already on the upswing -- over the last seven games, the former Knick is averaging 20.4 points, 6.9 assists, 6.0 boards, 3.6 threes and 1.1 steals while shooting 41.7 percent from beyond the arc.
