Barnes scored 24 points, but had little help from his teammates in the overtime loss to the Clippers on Friday. No one else on the Raptors had at least 20 points. Toronto blew an 11-point fourth quarter lead and lost by four in overtime. They scored eight points over the last 8:35 of game time and Barnes had all eight points. He’s provided fifth-round per game value over the last two weeks. The Raptors close out the week Sunday against the Lakers.

Simons went full supernova in this one, spearheading Boston’s late-game rally as they erased a double-digit deficit to take the lead with just over five minutes left in regulation, scoring 18 of his 39 points in the fourth quarter alone. The 26-year-old scoring machine slashed to the rim with greater frequency than usual and knocked down 7-of-16 attempts from three-point range. He’s shown flashes of gargantuan scoring upside, but the simply volume hasn’t been there on a consistent enough basis in a limited role off the bench to make a significant fantasy impact. A performance like this shows exactly why he’s the perfect complementary option for Jaylen Brown as a secondary creator capable of carrying the offense for extended stretches.

Brown wasn’t exactly efficient in his return following a one-game absence due to lower back spasms but he came through with a couple key baskets late, pouring in 20 of his 27 points in the second half as the upstart Celtics pulled off an impressive comeback to erase a nearly 20-point deficit. He drained a clutch three-pointer with just over four minutes left in regulation and added a couple additional buckets down the home stretch. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone has been phenomenal this season, averaging 29.4 points through 37 games, emerging as a legitimate MVP candidate.

Queta continues to be a revelation for the Celtics this season as he’s proven to be an effective rim protector and pick-and-roll threat for Boston’s revamped offense. The 26-year-old big man is averaging 10.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.8 steals and 1.2 blocks through 38 games, delivering eighth-round fantasy value during that span.

Gradey may have done most of his damage during the first half, but this still counts as one of the best games of his three-year NBA career. The Raptors’ wing scored 17 first-half points, and he finished with his first career double-double. In his four prior appearances, Gradey totaled 15 points and four rebounds. To say that Wednesday’s performance was a departure from the norm would be accurate. However, due to the Raptors’ current injury situation, Gradey will have more opportunities to contribute.

Barnes finished Wednesday’s victory with a season-high in assists, with the tally of 13 being one shy of his career-high.

With Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic saying on Sunday that Jakob Poeltl (back) remains without a timetable for return, the starting center job belongs to Murray-Boyles for the foreseeable future.

Over the past two weeks, Murray-Boyles has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. Rostered in 27 percent of Yahoo! leagues, CMB is close to a must-add in 12-team formats.

Give the 76ers credit for a much-improved defensive effort on Barnes, who was limited to 15 points after scoring 31 in Sunday’s overtime victory.

While Quickley’s production in the points and rebounds categories was solid, the lack of assists was disappointing for the Raptors’ point guard. Monday’s game was the first in which he failed to record an assist, one week after tallying one in a win over the Hawks.

Back after a two-game absence, he missed both of his three-point attempts and shot 33.3 percent from the field overall. The good news for Ingram managers was that he provided substantial value in the rebounding and assists categories, recording his first double-double of the season. Toronto has three games remaining on its Week 13 schedule.

It’s not hyperbolic to suggest that Brown has morphed into a legitimate MVP candidate this season as he’s topped 25 points in 13 of 15 games since the start of December while propelling the Celtics towards the apex of the Eastern Conference without Jayson Tatum. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone contributed 13 early points as the Celtics shot 61 percent from the floor in the opening half and wound up pulling away in the late stages. He got to the charity stripe a whopping 13 times and knocked down his final 12 attempts from the line. The Celtics have been one of the hottest teams in the Eastern Conference, winning 13 of their last 17 game. They’ll close out a back-to-back on Saturday evening when they host the Spurs at TG Garden.

Pritchard showcases his signature skillset in this one, consistently driving to the basket and creating shot opportunities beyond the arc, parachuting in whenever the Celtics needed to create something out of nothing on a possession. The 27-year-old sharp-shooting facilitator dished out eight assists while scoring 16 of his 27 points in the second half to help Boston pull away for a relatively easy win. He’s been a phenomenal fantasy contributor over the past two weeks, averaging 17.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.7 assists, 1.1 steals and 0.3 blocks across seven games during that span.

Simons continues to get more comfortable with his role in Boston, having scored in double figures in six straight and nine of his last ten games. Unfortunately for fantasy managers who have him rostered, this has not resulted in increased fantasy value. Over the past three weeks, Simons is still ranked outside the top-150 in eight- and nine-cat formats. Given how competitive the Celtics have been, it would be surprising to see them make any drastic changes to the roster before the trade deadline, which would not be a good thing for Simons’ fantasy value.
