This will be a third straight absence for Barrett, with Jamal Shead likely to remain in the starting unit in his place.

Newell left Sunday’s game against the Warriors in the second quarter with a right quad contusion and didn’t return. The 20-year-old forward is available Tuesday against the Lakers, but doesn’t have a fantasy-relevant role and thus isn’t worth rostering in most redraft leagues.

Kennard scored 22 points on Sunday, but he won’t get the chance to build on that performance. Zaccharie Risacher (knee) is also out, so Atlanta will be thin on the win. Corey Kispert should see a big bump in minutes in his second game for the Hawks.

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. The lone complaint, if there is one, for fantasy managers is that the rookie doesn’t provide three-point production. 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. However, he still filled the stat sheet, and poor shooting performances have been far from the norm for the Raptors’ star. A third-round player in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks, Barnes has offered top-15 per-game value for the season.

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. Quickley is averaging 6.1 helpers per game on the season, but a decrease in assists and poor shooting (37.7 percent over the past two weeks) has weighed down his fantasy value recently.

How much Ingram’s right thumb was an issue on Monday is up for him to say, but the Raptors’ wing struggled to find his touch against the 76ers. 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.

Newell played four minutes before exiting Sunday’s game with a right quad contusion. While the Hawks announced that the rookie was questionable to return, he did not. Atlanta won the game big, so Newell likely would have picked up a few more minutes in the fourth quarter. Hopefully, he won’t have to miss time, but the rookie forward’s status won’t affect redraft leagues.

In addition to recording his tenth double-double of the season, Okongwu’s seven assists were a season-high. Over the past two weeks, he has been close to a top-25 player in eight-cat formats. Okongwu and the Hawks, who are 7-2 in road games against Western Conference teams, play three games in Week 13. The first two are on the road, with the Hawks visiting the Lakers and Trail Blazers before returning home.

Kennard caught fire during the second half of Sunday’s game, knocking down six three-pointers on eight attempts. He played 20 minutes against the Warriors and has played at least that many in each of his last seven appearances. The absences of Zaccharie Risacher and Kristaps Porziņǵis have freed up additional opportunities across the rotation, so fantasy managers should take a wait-and-see approach to Kennard heading into Atlanta’s three-game Week 13.

Johnson put up another double-double for the Hawks, as he remains one of the top players in fantasy basketball regardless of league format. His top-25 production in eight-cat formats over the past two weeks represents a decrease in value; that’s how good Johnson has been this season. And with the Hawks trading Trae Young, the versatile forward is an unquestioned cornerstone in Atlanta.

Alexander-Walker had it rolling in the first half, scoring 17 points. Others took over after halftime as the Hawks picked up their first road win over the Warriors since the 2020-21 season.

Unsurprisingly, the move from Washington to Atlanta did not result in an enhanced role for Kispert. He played 13 minutes against the Warriors, missing all four of his shot attempts. With the Wizards, Kispert averaged 19.5 minutes per game. He appears unlikely to hit that number in Atlanta, especially once Zaccharie Risacher and Kristaps Porziņǵis return from their respective injuries. There’s no need to roster Kispert in most fantasy leagues.

McCollum was used in a reserve role on Sunday, and that will likely be the case for him moving forward. The role change limits his fantasy ceiling, but it’s much better for fantasy managers than running the risk of watching McCollum get shut down after the trade deadline had he remained in Washington. The 24 minutes were a nice starting point for CJ, and the playing time is worth watching during Atlanta’s three-game Week 13.

Barnes got off to a phenomenal start with 20 first-half points on 7-of-12 shooting and six free throws in his return following a brief one-game absence due to a minor right knee injury. He knocked down a go-ahead free throw with one second left in overtime to put Toronto ahead for good in the marathon affair. It was his fourth 30-point effort of the season and just two points shy of his season-high mark set back on October 26. The two teams will square off again on Monday night for the tail-end of a back-to-back as the Raptors kick off a four-game week that also includes matchups against the Pacers, Clippers and Lakers.

Quickley knocked down a critical three-pointer with 11 seconds remaining in regulation to slash Toronto’s deficit to just two points. He had a chance to tie the game in the final seconds but missed a turnaround fadeaway jumper with eight seconds left. Fortunately, teammate Jamal Shead came through with the game-tying bucket a couple seconds later following an offensive rebound. The lightning-quick 26-year-old guard has topped 15 points in six straight games since December 31.

Shead hit a couple clutch shots down the home stretch, including a game-tying jumper in the final seconds of regulation to force overtime, in his second start of the year. The 23-year-old guard has been in a groove from a shooting standpoint recently and he’s played at least 20 minutes in six of his last eight games since December 28. He doesn’t offer enough scoring upside to merit consideration in shallow fantasy leagues but he’s making the most of his chances lately.

Johnson’s meteoric rise continues as he steps into an expanded role for the Hawks from a facilitating and scoring standpoint with Trae Young no longer in the picture following his trade to Washington earlier this week.

Quickley has shouldered more of the offensive workload for the injury-plagued Raptors, who were without a trio of key contributors in this one with Scottie Barnes (knee), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) all on the shelf. They also lost RJ Barrett to an apparent left ankle injury during the late stages of the fourth quarter. The speedy 26-year-old guard dished out a season-high 13 helpers but it still wasn’t enough. He should see an uptick in creation opportunities and three-point attempts with Barnes, Ingram and Barret out of the mix, which provides a short-term boost to his fantasy appeal.
