Quickley shot the ball well on Friday and concluded as one of three Raptors to score at least 20 points. Although his scoring was important, he put together a balanced performance overall, falling a couple of rebounds and a few assists shy of a triple-double. Quickley’s performance against Portland was just the latest in what’s been a good stretch of play for him over Toronto’s three-game winning streak. He’ll have a chance to log another productive game on Sunday against the Thunder.

Mamukelashvili came up big for the Raptors in Friday’s win. He led the team in scoring, thanks largely to his production and efficiency from the three-point line, impacted the game with his passing, and did decent work on the glass during his 35 minutes of gameplay. The fifth-year frontcourt player is enjoying a nice stretch of basketball — he’s scored at least 20 points in back-to-back games and is posting a 19.5/8.3/3.5 line over the last four games.

Ingram had a well-rounded performance on Friday. In his 35 minutes, he impacted the game with his scoring, per usual, but also attacked the glass and was able to come up with three stocks on the defensive end. Friday marked the third straight game Ingram finished with at least 20 points, all during Toronto’s three-game winning streak. He’s played his role well this season with the Raptors and should remain an important piece to their puzzle — fantasy managers shouldn’t expect any slowed production.

Barrett will return from a seven-game absence to make his first appearance in two weeks. The veteran guard has been limited to 23 games this season due to injuries, but his return will provide the Raptors with another scoring threat. Toronto will look to collect its third straight win on its current trip to the West Coast.

Back in action after a three-game absence, Leonard was limited to 25 minutes on Thursday. He made the most of his time on the floor, averaging nearly one point per minute and finishing a blocked shot shy of a complete stat line. With the Clippers not having a back-to-back until the end of Week 15, hopefully that means Leonard will be able to get into a rhythm and not worry about taking an injury management night. Kobe Sanders came off the bench on Thursday, finishing with 11 points (4-of-6 FGs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal and three three-pointers in 24 minutes.

For the first time since late November, Zubac has hit double digits in rebounds in five consecutive games. The 19 boards accumulated on Thursday weren’t a career-high, but they were a season-high for the 7-footer. Decreased scoring production has negatively affected Zubac’s fantasy value this season, but there have also been decreases in rebounds, steals and blocked shots. While he remains a top-100 player in eight- and nine-cat formats, Zubac’s fantasy ceiling has been lower than many expected.

While Harden finished with a double-double and solid production in the rebound category, fantasy managers took a beating from an efficiency standpoint. In addition to a 6-of-21 night from the field, the Clippers’ point guard recorded seven turnovers. Over his last two games, Harden has been responsible for 16 assists and 13 turnovers. While the track record shows that high-turnover nights are going to happen because of Harden’s usage, combining that with a supbar shooting night can be challenging for some fantasy managers to overcome.

Sidery also mentions that “Sacramento is eyeing RJ Barrett as the primary player in return.” We do know from previous reporting that the Raptors are open to moving some combination of Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, and/or Jakob Poeltl at the trade deadline. It remains to be seen if anything comes from this, but Sabonis would fit as a post offensive option alongside slashing wings like Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes.

While Immanuel Quickley (18/6/8/2 with one three-pointer) continues to lead the way for the Raptors’ guards, Shead has provided valuable contributions in the aftermath of RJ Barrett’s ankle injury. The second-year guard has scored in double figures in three of his last four games, and at least six assists accompanied each of those double-digit efforts. Shead isn’t a must-stream player, but he’s worth watching for the time being.

While Jakob Poeltl (back) and Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) being out for Tuesday’s win over the Warriors did not result in Mamukelashvili starting then, he was in the lineup for Wednesday’s game against the Kings. And Mamu came through with one of his best games of the season, with the 22 points being two shy of his season-high. Add in the rebounds and assists, and Mamu provided a reminder why he should be rostered in deep leagues. With Poeltl having returned to Toronto to get his back examined, Murray-Boyles is considered to be day-to-day. If he remains out, Mamukelashvili will be worth picking up for Friday’s game in Portland.

For the first time since the first few days of January, Ingram has scored at least 22 points in consecutive games. And even with the limited defensive production, he has been one of the most valuable players in fantasy basketball over the past two weeks, providing third-round value in eight- and nine-cat formats. Ingram and the Raptors play two more road games to end Week 14, starting on Friday in Portland.

Barnes has scored at least 22 points in five straight games, continuing to produce at a high level for fantasy managers. Over the past two weeks, the Raptors’ forward has been a top-25 player in eight-cat formats. After serving as the small-ball five to begin Tuesday’s win over the Warriors, Barnes was in a more comfortable position on Wednesday. But it doesn’t matter where he plays; Barnes will be a highly valuable player for the Raptors and fantasy managers.

Unlike the Warriors, who the Raptors beat on Tuesday, the Kings start two legitimate interior players in Precious Achiuwa and Maxime Raynaud. To account for this, Mamuekelashvili is in the starting lineup, with Gradey Dick heading to the bench. Even if he were to be used in a reserve role, Mamu is a far better fantasy option than Gradey.

Ingram was one of three Raptors starters to score at least 20 points in Tuesday’s victory, and he’s scored at least 19 in four straight. While Ingram’s season average is slightly lower than what it was in New Orleans last season, availability has not been an issue. As a result, fantasy managers have been able to recoup excellent value for the forward, who has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats.

Barnes finished three rebounds shy of a triple-double on a night when the Raptors were clicking on all cylinders offensively.

Konan Niederhauser added another nice stat line in what’s been a solid rookie season thus far for him in limited action. He went perfect from the floor and had several highlight-worthy finishes at the rim throughout the game to tie a career-high in points. The rookie center also erased shots on the defensive end and showed off his athleticism. He’s currently the third center in the Clippers’ rotation, so it’s unlikely he’ll have fantasy value aside from nights when one of Ivica Zubac or Brook Lopez is sidelined. Nonetheless, he had a productive night in his 23 minutes.

Harden struggled with his shooting efficiency against the Wizards, but utilized the free-throw line to finish as one of two Clippers with at least 20 points. The former league MVP also led the team in assists on the evening and protected the basketball fairly well in the process.

The free-throw line was also a factor on this night, and as usual, the former two-time Defensive Player of the Year used his active hands to collect several steals. The Clippers have now won four straight games, and Leonard is playing at an All-Star level.
