Impact Boucher is in danger of missing his second straight contest Friday due to a non-COVID illness. However, his potential absence won't impact Toronto's rotation.

TORONTO RAPTORS 2-11 · 15TH IN EASTERN CONFERENCE
2-11 · 15TH IN EASTERN CONFERENCE
Chris Boucher - Questionable for Friday Boucher (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Warriors.
Jakob Poeltl - Delivers stellar all-around line Poeltl (ankle) tallied 16 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, four steals and two blocks across 29 minutes in Wednesday's 136-125 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Poeltl's availability for Wednesday's contest looked to be in some doubt after he sprained an ankle in Monday's win over the Pacers and was unable to return, but he received the green light to play after checking out fine following the Raptors' morning shootaround. The veteran center proceeded to deliver one of his better all-around outings of the campaign, complete with a season-high-tying assist and steal totals. Poeltl's outstanding production in sizable minutes should erase most of the concern fantasy managers might have had about him being affected by the ankle injury.

RJ Barrett - Goes for 26 points in loss Barrett contributed 26 points (9-16 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 4-9 FT), five rebounds and six assists over 35 minutes during Wednesday's 136-125 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Barrett was efficient from the field Wednesday and reached the 20-point mark for the third time over his last four appearances, as he's settling into a consistent role for the Raptors on offense. He's averaging 20.5 points per game since joining Toronto, so he's experienced a slight uptick in terms of scoring compared to his Knicks tenure, where he was posting 18.2 points per contest.

Immanuel Quickley - Hits 28 points in loss to Dallas Quickley amassed 28 points (10-18 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, nine assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 136-125 loss to the Mavericks.
Impact Quickley finished just one assist shy of recording what would've been his first double-double since Feb. 4, when he posted 17 points and 11 assists in a loss to the Thunder. Quickley has experienced a bigger role on offense since the trade that sent him from New York to Toronto, and he has been making an impact in the starting role he was desperately looking for when leaving New York. Quickley is averaging 18.3 points, 5.2 assists and 4.0 rebounds per game since the beginning of February.
FEBRUARY 29 • ROTOWIRE
Scottie Barnes - Comes close to triple-double Barnes chipped in 19 points (9-22 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists, one block and three steals over 39 minutes during Wednesday's 136-125 loss to Dallas.
Impact Barnes' ability to fill the stat sheet and rack up stats is no longer a secret in The Association, but the third-year forward has taken a massive leap in 2023-24, handling a bigger role as a playmaker and filling the stat sheet almost on a routine basis. The numbers back that up, as Barnes is averaging 18.9 points, 10.1 rebounds and 8.4 assists per game over his last eight appearances, a span in which he's also racked up five double-doubles and two triple-doubles.

Jakob Poeltl - Questionable for Wednesday Poeltl (ankle) is questionable to play Wednesday versus Dallas, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Impact Poeltl not immediately being ruled out for Wednesday's game is a good sign after he was unable to return to Monday's contest due to a left ankle sprain. That being said, his status will need to be monitored. Kelly Olynyk would likely step into a featured role in the frontcourt if Poeltl can't suit up.
