As of Friday, Brooks had not been cleared to resume 5-on-5 work, so his being ruled out for Monday is unsurprising. Royce O’Neale will remain in the starting lineup until that changes.

Ingram missed Monday’s win over the Jazz with a heel issue, but has appeared in the last two Raptors games. After he was initially listed as questionable for Sunday’s game against the Magic, he’s been ruled in. Ingram hasn’t reached 20 points in either game since returning. It’s a tough break for fantasy managers as Ingram isn’t firing on all cylinders during the fantasy playoffs.

Absent from the Raptors’ initial injury report, Barrett actually tweaked his left shoulder during Friday’s win over the Pelicans. He’s now dealing with some shoulder stiffness, casting doubt on his availability. If Barrett can’t play, Jamal Shead could move into the starting lineup, since Ja’Kobe Walter is starting in place of Immanuel Quickley.

Ighodaro didn’t miss a shot from the field on Saturday; such is life when you’re able to play off of guards who can set you up around the basketball consistently. While his fantasy value has remained relatively low, the second-year center has done enough to merit rostering in deep leagues while the Suns await Mark Williams’ return from a foot injury. Ighodaro’s role for Week 23 should remain the same, which is good for those who have been rostering him.

On a night when starter Collin Gillespie (0/3/7/1/1) missed all eight of his three-point attempts, Allen’s shooting off the bench was critical. He made four of his 11 three-point attempts while also recording a complete stat line in one of his better all-around performances since the All-Star break. Allen has played 23 and 21 minutes in two games since returning from a knee injury, and his minutes are likely to increase moving forward. In that scenario, Gillespie’s opportunities may take a hit.

Green was outstanding on Saturday, shooting over 50 percent from the field and committing no turnovers. Just as good for the Suns was that he only needed to play 22 minutes, as the Suns outscored Utah by 18 points in the first quarter and remained in control throughout. While his category league value has remained low since the All-Star break, Green has been a solid option in points leagues. That should not change in Week 23, with the Suns playing four games.

Booker and the Suns made short work of the Jazz, outscoring the visitors by a 39-21 margin in the first quarter and never looking back. He’s scored at least 22 points in three straight and 12 of his last 13 games, picking up the production at the right time. Since the All-Star break, Booker has been a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. The Suns hit the road for all four of their Week 23 games, starting with a back-to-back on Monday and Tuesday against the Grizzlies and the Magic.

While Jackson-Davis was not available for Friday’s win over the Pelicans, Murray-Boyles played 12 minutes before leaving with a back injury. The latter’s availability is far more impactful on fantasy basketball, as Sandro Mamukelashvili’s playing time tends to receive a slight bump when CMB is out. Jackson-Davis has rarely been in the Raptors’ rotation since he was acquired from the Warriors.

Ingram’s heel issue has lingered for a bit, with the Raptors forward sitting out Monday’s win over the Jazz. He did not miss either of Toronto’s last two games; hopefully, that bodes well for Ingram’s availability for Sunday. If he sits, Jamal Shead could move into the starting lineup, shifting Ja’Kobe Walter down a position. Walter started Friday’s win over the Pelicans due to Immanuel Quickley being out.

Sunday’s game will be the fourth that Quickley has missed due to plantar fasciitis in his right foot. Ja’Kobe Walter started Friday’s win over the Pelicans, scoring 18 points and hitting four three-pointers. If given another start, Walter would be worthy of streaming consideration in deep leagues. Jamal Shead moved to the bench on Friday, dishing out eight assists in 25 minutes.

Collin Murray-Boyles exited this game early due to back spasms, which allowed Mamu to take on extra minutes off the bench. He has had an excellent three-game stretch, averaging 18.0 points, 7.0 rebounds, 2.0 steals and 3.0 triples per game while shooting 60 percent from the floor. Mamu has been on fire, and if CMB misses time, he may play enough to make a big impact as a streaming option.

Barnes turned in a full line on Wednesday, but he didn’t do much scoring in the blowout loss. However, he bounced back in this one while still making an impact on both ends of the floor. Barnes has been a fantasy stud all year and is a big reason the Raptors will be making a return to the postseason. They’ll wrap this week up against the Magic on Sunday before wrapping the season up with two straight four-game weeks.

Walter replaced Jamal Shead as the starter for this game after Shead filled in for Immanuel Quickley, who is still out with a foot injury, for a few games. Walter has scored in double figures in five of his last six appearances, and he entered this game having shot at least 65 percent from the floor in five straight games. Though he didn’t keep that up in this game, he was still able to have a solid scoring performance.

Williams has been out since early March, while Brooks has been sidelined for a little over a month. The good news is that both are making progress in their respective recoveries. However, Williams and Brooks still not being cleared for 5-on-5 work does not bode well for their ability to impact fantasy basketball in Week 23. Managers stashing either in an IL spot can continue to hold out hope that this changes, but they should not ignore potential alternatives on the waiver wire.

Barrett struggled on Wednesday with his shooting, both inside and outside the arc. He failed to convert on any of his seven three-point attempts and even shot below 50.0 percent from the free-throw line. The seventh-year guard was one of Toronto’s top rebounders and facilitators on the night, but his inefficient scoring held back his production in a big way. Fantasy managers will hope he can bounce back on Friday against the Pelicans.

Despite being relatively unproductive as a scorer, Barnes offset those struggles by making plays throughout the night as a passer. He’d finish with double-digit assists for the second straight game and narrowly miss out on a triple-double for a consecutive time. Still, Barnes rebounded well, made plays on defense, and provided a balanced performance overall. He’ll have a chance to stay productive against the Pelicans on Friday.

Ingram was Toronto’s leading scorer on a night when not much went right for the team’s offense. He shot unspectacularly in his 36 minutes but failed to reach the 20-point mark. The former Most Improved Player did decent work on the glass and as a passer, as well, but his final line wasn’t one that should excite fantasy managers during the fantasy playoffs. Ingram and the Raptors will face the Pelicans on Friday and will have a chance to put forth a better performance.

Booker had a rough shooting night, but he was able to make up for it by scoring half of his point at the free throw line and dishing out plenty of dimes. It wasn’t enough to get the win, and the Suns have now lost six of their last seven games. They only have one more game left this week, which will limit his impact for fantasy managers. Still, it is against the tanking Jazz, so it should at least be a strong performance from him.

Allen returned to the lineup following a four-game absence with a knee injury. He didn’t shoot efficiently, but he was still able to contribute buckets off the bench in the loss.

After providing limited value in his first two starts for the injured Royce O’Neale (knee), Goodwin was more impactful on Sunday. The 14 points were the most he’s scored in a game since February 21, which was the last game he played before being sidelined by a strained calf. Add in the rebounds, steals and three-pointers, and Sunday was a good finish to Week 21 for Goodwin and those streaming him.

Gillespie has made at least three three-pointers in four consecutive games, making 17 of his 37 attempts.

After a disappointing performance in Saturday’s loss to the Bucks, Booker rebounded nicely against the Raptors. In addition to the points and excellent percentages, the Suns’ guard dished out six assists.
