Murray-Boyles is officially out after initially being downgraded from questionable to doubtful. There remains hope that he’ll be able to return before the end of the Raptors’ road trip, with Toronto still having games against Utah (Monday) and the Clippers (Wednesday) before turning home.

Initially listed as questionable, Murray-Boyles is trending toward not playing on Sunday. However, he was playing some 3-on-3 during early pregame workouts, so a return to action may not be far away. Sandro Mamukelashvili will remain Jakob Poeltl’s primary backup.

Barnes didn’t have the best night shooting the basketball, shooting 1-of-6 from beyond the arc in Denver. The good news for fantasy managers, especially those in category leagues, is that the Raptors star filled the stat line in his 38 minutes. Since the All-Star break, Barnes has provided third-round value in eight-cat formats, a slight decrease compared to his pre-break production. He’ll be fine, especially with the Raptors also playing four games in Week 22.

Despite averaging nearly 22 points per game since the All-Star break, Ingram has only been a seventh-round player during this stretch. The issue has been a decrease in his field-goal and free-throw percentages. The foul line has been the bigger issue, with Ingram’s post-break percentage (76.0) being over seven points lower than his pre-break percentage (83.7). He’ll look to take a step toward cleaning up that category when the Raptors visit the Suns on Sunday.

Poeltl’s double-double was his second in three games, and he’s scored at least 17 points in three straight. And his fantasy value has received a significant boost since the All-Star break, with the 7-footer providing fifth-round value in eight-cat formats. The Raptors continue their road trip on Sunday in Phoenix, the first game of two in as many nights for Toronto. With Poeltl having last played both games of a back-to-back in late October, availability could be an issue.

Due to his sore right ankle, Duren was a game-time call for Friday’s game. He was able to play, but foul trouble and the Pistons taking care of business conspired to limit the All-Star center to 21 minutes. Duren will now get a little time off, as the Pistons won’t play again until Monday. Paul Reed (15/6/3/2/1) played 23 minutes off the bench, and he has some value in deep leagues as long as Detroit remains without Isaiah Stewart.

After struggling in the first game he and the Pistons played after losing Cade Cunningham to a collapsed lung, Jenkins was far better on Friday. The second-year guard was efficient as a playmaker and scorer, finishing two assists shy of a double-double. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, the Pistons don’t play again in Week 21. However, they do have four games in Week 22, starting with the Lakers on Monday.

Sasser has a significant opportunity with Pistons superstar Cade Cunningham (lung) out for potentially the rest of the regular season. The 25-year-old point guard won’t be able to capitalize on that opportunity Friday as he’s been ruled out with hip soreness for the game against the Warriors.

Duren is dealing with right ankle soreness. The 22-year-old center is coming off a 24-point performance in Thursday’s win over the Wizards, though he went to the locker room late in the third quarter and sat on the bench for the entire fourth quarter.

After a run of three consecutive games with at least 12 points, Robinson totaled nine in Detroit’s last two games entering Thursday. He and fantasy managers needed a bounce-back performance, and the veteran guard came through with a 4-of-9 night from beyond the arc. The five rebounds were a nice bonus for fantasy managers, most of whom don’t expect much from Robinson beyond points and three-pointers.

Duren finished Thursday’s victory with a fifth consecutive double-double, but there was some concern regarding his departure with just under three minutes remaining in the third quarter. The All-Star center went back to the locker room, and it was unclear if there was an injury concern. Duren was back on the bench for the entire fourth quarter, finishing with 25 minutes played. Backup Paul Reed played 21 minutes, finishing with 17 points, four rebounds, three assists and two blocks. With Isaiah Stewart unavailable, Reed has some value in deep fantasy leagues.

With Cade Cunningham (lung) out for at least two weeks, the door is open for Jenkins to be a league winner for fantasy managers. Unfortunately, the second-year guard had a rough night shooting the basketball, making one of his nine two-point attempts. Jenkins shot the ball slightly better from two, but the 3-of-16 night won’t do managers any favors. Caris LeVert (14/5/2/4) was more productive coming off the bench, but he logged 22 minutes to Jenkins’ 34.

Cunningham had to leave Tuesday’s win over the Wizards with back spasms, but the issue is worse than that. The Pistons announced on Thursday that he has been diagnosed with a collapsed lung and will be re-evaluated in two weeks. Daniss Jenkins was the replacement in the starting lineup the last time Cunningham missed time, and he’s a worthwhile pickup for fantasy managers. Marcus Sasser and Caris LeVert may also take on enhanced roles in Cunningham’s absence.

Poeltl needed just 21 minutes to make a big impact on Wednesday’s game. In his limited time, he led the Raptors in rebounds, was one of seven Toronto players to score in double figures, and led his team in plus-minus (+33). While his final numbers against Chicago weren’t as great as Sunday’s 21/18/5 line against Detroit, fantasy managers should come away encouraged over Poeltl’s two-game production.

Ingram made the most of his limited opportunities on the offensive end on Wednesday. He missed just one shot on the evening before falling just shy of the 20-point mark. The former Most Improved Player Award winner also contributed as a rebounder and passer across his 29 minutes. Ingram ultimately didn’t log any fourth-quarter minutes due to the one-sided score that favored Toronto. Still, he finished with a decent final line overall.

A one-sided contest limited Barrett to only 27 minutes, which was enough time for him to tally a third straight 20-point game. He was efficient again from the field en route to finishing as Toronto’s leading scorer and leader in made three-pointers. Barrett has really come on as a scorer of late; in March alone, he’s scored at least 20 points in six of his seven appearances, while shooting above 50.0 percent in each of the six. Solid rebounding has also provided a nice floor of late. He’ll look to stay hot on Friday against the Nuggets.
