Thursday’s game is the first of two in as many nights for the Raptors, who host the Hornets on Friday. Poeltl’s absence opens up a spot in the starting lineup, and this may be a spot where Sandro Mamukelashvili or Collin Murray-Boyles starts. While Jamison Battle was the choice for Sunday’s loss to the Knicks, the Lakers’ Deandre Ayton spends more time around the basket than New York’s Karl-Anthony Towns.

Avdija’s potential absence on the second night of a back-to-back would open up a ton of minutes and a starting spot. Shaedon Sharpe would likely move back into the starting lineup, while Caleb Love and Rayan Rupert could take on larger roles off the bench, though neither would play enough to be worth streaming in standard leagues.

Murray’s status for Wednesday’s game could have a larger impact than it typically would. Donovan Clingan (leg) is also questionable, and Murray started when Clingan last missed a game. With Robert Williams (knee) out, Murray’s status will be the main factor for deciding if Duop Reath and Yang Hansen will be part of the rotation for this game.

Clingan could be unavailable for the second night of this back-to-back. Kris Murray started during Clingan’s last absence, but he is questionable with a hip contusion. If both are out, Yang Hansen and Duop Reath would occupy the center minutes, though in a matchup with Evan Mobley, that wouldn’t make either ideal streaming targets.

Unsurprisingly, Williams will sit out the second leg of Portland’s back-to-back. Donovan Clingan (leg) is questionable, and with Williams unavailable, Duop Reath and Yang Hansen are candidates to be part of the rotation. Kris Murray started in a smaller lineup during Clingan’s last absence, and he should see a bump in minutes regardless of Clingan’s status.

Since scoring five points and missing all eight of his field-goal attempts in a November 21 win over the Warriors, Grant has reached double figures in five straight games. His season-long fantasy value has continued to exceed expectations, with the forward ranked within the top-100 in eight-cat formats. While rebounding remains an issue for Grant, the percentages have been solid, as has the defensive production.

With Sharpe recently returning to action after missing four games with a strained right calf, there has been some concern about his playing time. Despite coming off the bench again, he logged 30 minutes against the Raptors. That may be a sign that he’s ready to return to the starting lineup soon. However, with the Trail Blazers playing the Cavaliers on Wednesday, a night off may be in the cards for Sharpe. Sidy Cissoko (three points, two rebounds and one three-pointer in 22 minutes) continues to start, but he has not been productive enough to impact fantasy basketball.

One game removed from recording his second triple-double of the season, Avdija posted his seventh double-double on Tuesday. Since Portland lost Jrue Holiday to a calf injury, the versatile forward has been close to a top-50 player in eight-cat formats. Avdija is just outside the top-100 in nine-cat during this stretch, due mainly to an average of 3.8 turnovers per game. However, when Deni dishes out assists at the rate he did on Tuesday, fantasy managers aren’t going to lose sleep over a few turnovers.

Camara hit four first-quarter triples and finished with six, establishing a new high for three-pointers in a game. Over his last two outings, the third-year forward is 11-of-22 from beyond the arc. Camara’s season-long fantasy value hasn’t been great, due in part to his shooting 41.3 percent from the field, but he’s made 44.4 percent of his attempts over the past two weeks.

Poeltl was back in the lineup after missing Sunday’s loss to the Knicks, pushing Jamison Battle (DNP-CD) to the bench. His return also impacted Sandro Mamukelashvili (6/7/2/0/1), who was limited to 19 minutes off the bench. Poeltl played 26 minutes, which aligns with his average for the season. While he did surpass 30 minutes in the two games before Sunday’s night off, Poeltl’s playing time will likely hover in the mid-to-high 20s range. While he can still be valuable to fantasy managers, that lowers his ceiling.

Ingram experienced an injury scare during the third quarter when he rolled his right ankle. However, after a quick trip to the locker room, he was back on the bench and ultimately returned to action. It’s worth noting that a left ankle injury ended Ingram’s 2024-25 season after 18 games. He’s already played 22 this season and has yet to miss a game. While Ingram is ranked outside the top-100 in nine-cat formats, simply being available is a win for those who roster him.

Barnes, who was named Eastern Conference Defensive Player of the Month earlier on Tuesday, blocked two more shots against the Trail Blazers. And his defensive production is one reason why the Raptors forward ranks among the best players in fantasy basketball this season. Averaging 1.4 steals and 1.6 blocks per game, Barnes is providing first-round value in 12-team formats. And he’s shown no signs of slowing down, especially with the improvements he’s made offensively.

Quickley started Tuesday’s game hot, hitting his first five three-point attempts in what would be one of his best outings of the season. The 23 points were two shy of his season-high, and this was his third game with five made three-pointers. Thus far, the addition of Brandon Ingram to the rotation has not negatively affected Quickley’s fantasy value, as he’s providing sixth-round value in nine-cat formats. In 12-team formats, that’s slightly better than his Yahoo! ADP (74).

With Clingan unavailable, the Trail Blazers began Sunday’s loss to the Thunder with a smaller lineup. Kris Murray joined the starters and played 35 minutes, with Robert Williams getting 19 minutes off the bench. If Toronto’s Jakob Poeltl is available for Tuesday’s matchup, that could be a spot where Williams receives the starting nod if Clingan can’t play. However, that isn’t guaranteed, and the Time Lord’s minutes are still being restricted due to his injury history.

With Donovan Clingan sidelined with an illness, Avdija practically filled in as the starting center. He fell one rebound shy of matching his career high for rebounds, but he was still able to record the fourth triple-double of his career. Avdija is enjoying a phenomenal breakout season and will continue to be an elite option in fantasy basketball, even if the lack of defensive stats and subpar shooting percentages have slightly limited him.

Love is still on a two-way contract for Portland, but he has been a source of offense off the bench in recent weeks. He has scored in double figures in four of his last seven appearances, though it hasn’t come efficiently in recent games. Love has done enough to be worth keeping an eye on in dynasty leagues, but he has a ways to go before he can be considered a standard league option.

Murray got the starting nod with Donovan Clingan (illness) sidelined for this game. It was a smaller starting unit for Portland, and Murray wasn’t able to fill the void on the glass. However, he was able to score in double figures for just the third time this season. This was Murray’s second start of the season, and it was far more productive than the first. He won’t get the chance to start often, but he does have enough upside to make an impact in deeper league when he does.

Barnes knocked down six of eight to score a game-high 16 first-half points, but was held to just two points in the second half as some fatigue seemed to set in for the Raptors on the second night of a back-to-back. The Raptors suffered their second straight defeat after their nine-game win streak was snapped earlier this weekend in an overtime loss to the Hornets. They’ve dropped nine straight games against the Knicks dating back to January 22, 2023. The 24-year-old playmaker has put together an outstanding season, delivering first-round value for fantasy purposes, averaging 19.9 points, eight rebounds, five assists, 1.4 steals and 1.6 blocks through 21 games. Toronto opens a four-game week on Tuesday against the Trail Blazers before matchups against the Lakers, Hornets and Celtics.

Not only did Quickley record a season-high assist total, but he notched his second double-double on Saturday. His fantasy value has consistently hovered within the top-75 in eight- and nine-cat formats thus far, with a lower-than-expected free-throw percentage being the issue. A career 85.3 percent shooter from the charity stripe, Quickley is making 74.5 percent of his attempts this season. Getting that number closer to 80 percent will go a long way toward improving IQ’s fantasy value. The Raptors play four games during Week 7, starting with the Trail Blazers on Tuesday.

Ingram has scored at least 22 points in three straight and six of his last seven games.

A top-75 player in nine-cat formats, Ingram is closing in on top-50 value in eight-cat. He’ll look to take advantage of some home cooking during Week 7, as all four of the Raptors’ games are at home.

Barnes recorded an excellent stat line on Saturday, but his run of consecutive made free throws ended at 25. So, José Calderon’s franchise record of 87 consecutive made free throws remains safe.

The Raptors play four games during Week 7, starting with Portland on Tuesday.

Yang Hansen is also available, and he would slide into the backup role.

Sharpe returned from a four-game absence, came off the bench and finished as Portland’s third-leading scorer on Wednesday. He failed to make an impact from beyond the arc but was efficient and productive on his two-point attempts. The fourth-year guard pulled down a handful of boards in his 22 minutes, as well, but didn’t have much impact elsewhere. Wednesday’s outing marked his lowest of the season from a minutes and scoring standpoint. It’ll be worth monitoring how Sharpe is utilized going forward — he was averaging 30 points in the five games prior to returning on Wednesday.

On the heels of a 35-point outing against the Bucks, Grant failed to recapture his shooting touch on Wednesday. Against the Spurs, he didn’t make a three-pointer and shot below 30 percent from the field on nearly 20 shot attempts. Still, he managed to finish as the team’s second-leading scorer on a night in which only one Trail Blazer scored more than 13 points. Portland will need Grant to be productive going forward, given the team’s injuries. He’ll have a chance to bounce back against the Thunder on Sunday.

Avdija set a new season-high in scoring on Wednesday, using the three-point shot and accurate shooting inside the arc to achieve it. Six missed free throws prevented the versatile forward from reaching the 40-point mark, and his six turnovers also likely cost him a few shot attempts. However, he also tallied a team-high in assists against the Spurs before the final buzzer sounded. Avidja has been Portland’s most productive player thus far, which shouldn’t change as the season progresses.

Barrett sustained a right knee sprain in Sunday’s win over Brooklyn before sitting out Monday’s win over Cleveland. His timeline means Barrett will miss at least four games, though he could be forced to sit out additional games beyond that, depending on his recovery. Ja’Kobe Walter started on Monday, though he did little with his 24 minutes. Jamal Shead logged 24 minutes off the bench, and he should see an uptick in playing time for as long as Barrett is out.
