Maxey, who has not appeared in a game since March 3, will miss a ninth-straight contest on Wednesday. With Walker missing his fourth-straight due to the league’s concussion protocol, the 76ers will again rely on Quentin Grimes, Jared Butler and Jeff Dowtin Jr. on the perimeter. Grimes should be rostered in standard leagues, while Butler and Dowtin are worth a look in deeper formats.

Barnes played both games of Toronto’s road back-to-back, logging 31 minutes after playing 28 in Portland on Sunday. The lingering question for fantasy managers is how long this will last, as the Raptors are focused on developing their younger players and improving the franchise’s draft lottery odds. Barnes needs to be in lineups as long as he’s active, but the returns may be diminished.

Monday’s game was Mogbo’s first since March 4, when he suffered a back contusion. The rookie did not offer much production in his 27 minutes, but there will be more opportunities for him to start before the season ends. Whether or not he can do enough to merit being rostered in deep leagues during the “silly season” remains to be seen, but there’s no need to add Mogbo right now.

Quickley returned to the Raptors’ lineup after sitting out Sunday’s loss to the Trail Blazers. The good news for fantasy managers is that he logged 30 minutes, which has not been the norm for Toronto’s proven options as the regular season approaches its conclusion. The Raptors play two more games during Week 20, but the second is part of a Sunday/Monday back-to-back. This could be a two-game week for Quickley, which would be a bitter pill for fantasy managers to swallow.

Butler has started the last five games for the 76ers, and while the assists have been there consistently, this was his best night as a scorer since being traded to Philadelphia. He has averaged 13.2 points, three rebounds, six assists, one steal and 1.8 threes per game during this stint as a starter, which ranks just outside the top-100 in nine-cat leagues during that stretch. Rostered in just 11 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Butler is a strong streaming option with three games left this week.

The Houston native had quite the performance in his hometown. 32 of his points and six of his three-pointers came in the second half and overtime, but it wasn’t enough for him to lead the shorthanded 76ers to victory. This was a new career-high in points for Grimes, which he has now set twice since being traded to Philadelphia. He has scored at least 25 points in five straight games and in six of his last seven appearances. Though this has been a lost season for the team, Grimes has been a bright spot that should have fans encouraged heading into next season.

According to Charania, George received injections in his left adductor muscle and left knee on Monday. As a result, he will not play again this season, with the 76ers wing expected to be sidelined for at least six weeks. Expected to be part of a “big three” with Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey that would make the 76ers a title contender, George struggled to stay healthy. A hyperextended knee suffered during the preseason was the beginning of a challenging season for George, who many expected to be a third-round player in fantasy basketball. Justin Edwards should play plenty as the regular season approaches its conclusion and is worth streaming in deep leagues.

With 8:41 remaining in the fourth quarter and the Raptors holding an 86-80 lead, Barnes was subbed out of Sunday’s game. He would not return, underlining the concern regarding elite fantasy players whose teams want to improve their draft lottery odds. Fantasy managers received solid production in the rebounds, assists and steals categories, but Barnes was also responsible for five turnovers. And with the Raptors visiting Phoenix on Monday, managers should plan for the likelihood that Barnes does not play. AJ Lawson (nine points, eight rebounds, six assists and one three-pointer) played 33 minutes off the bench against Portland, and he could move into the starting lineup if Barnes sits on Monday.

Give the Raptors credit for a well-executed tank job on Sunday. Once Poeltl and Scottie Barnes were pulled from the lineup, the Trail Blazers mounted a rally and won by three. The next few weeks may be frustrating for those who have Poeltl rostered; even if he plays, there’s the chance that his minutes are cut like they were on Sunday. And with the Raptors visiting Phoenix on Monday, Orlando Robinson (10 points, four rebounds and two assists in 30 minutes) could be moved into the starting lineup.

Agbaji made his first appearance in the Raptors’ lineup since February 28, and the returns were encouraging. Unsurprisingly, he wasn’t asked to take on a starters’ workload in Portland, but the third-year wing provided solid value in his 25 minutes on the court. With the Raptors visiting the Suns on Monday, Agbaji may be held out for injury management reasons. If so, Jamison Battle (nine points, two rebounds, one assist and three three-pointers in 23 minutes) may take on a more significant role within the rotation.

Agbaji will make his first appearance since spraining his ankle during a February 28 loss to the Bulls. Given the time missed, his minutes will likely be restricted on Sunday. However, there may come a point later in the season when Agbaji is again playing starters’ minutes. If that happens before the fantasy playoffs conclude, he’ll be worth a look in deep leagues. But fantasy managers can leave him alone for Sunday.

A disappointment during his time with the Lakers, the 2023 first-round pick has had an opportunity to prove himself as a pro in Philadelphia. Hood-Schifino had his best game as a pro on Sunday, with 19 points and five three-pointers being personal bests. This was Hood-Schifino’s second game in double figures as an NBA player. One game does not make him a player who has to be added ahead of Philadelphia’s four-game Week 20.

The 76ers were without Kelly Oubre Jr. and Paul George for Sunday’s game, so Edwards made his 15th start of the season. The rookie wing shot 50 percent from the field overall but was 0-of-4 from beyond the arc. The defensive stats were encouraging, however, and Edwards is a player who should not lack opportunities as the 76ers look to improve the likelihood that they’ll keep their top-6 protected first-round pick.

He should undoubtedly be rostered, but that’s something for fantasy managers to watch.

The veteran guard recorded his second 20-point game in as many outings, with Friday’s total representing a career-high. Add in the complete stat line, and this was a good night to have Dowtin rostered. How long this run will last depends on the health of the other 76ers guards and the number of games Dowtin can be active for as a two-way player. Therefore, Jared Butler also has value at this stage in the season.
