BKN • Shooting Guard • #30

Even though Danny Wolf was the Nets player called upon to fill in for Michael Porter Jr. (rest), MPJ’s absence also meant more playing time for Agbaji. He made the most of his 22 minutes, with Ochai’s 19 points a new season-high. Add in the production across the board, and Monday was a good night for the few who rostered Agbaji. His fantasy value for the rest of the season will be influenced by Porter’s availability, but he’ll be no higher than second in the pecking order behind Wolf when MPJ doesn’t play.

After playing 16 minutes in his Nets’ debut, Agbaji logged 28 minutes on Thursday and was reasonably productive. However, his best chance at fantasy relevance may come on nights when Michael Porter Jr. and Noah Clowney are either unavailable or play limited minutes. That was the case in Cleveland, with MPJ playing 21 minutes and Clowney (eight points, one rebound, two assists and two three-pointers) playing 20. Agbaji isn’t a must-add, but he is worth keeping an eye on.

Agbaji was acquired from the Raptors on Wednesday, but the deal is still being finalized, so he will not suit up on Thursday. His next chance to make his Nets debut will be on Saturday against the Wizards. That should mean more minutes for Ziaire Williams and Ben Saraf on Thursday.

Agbaji fell out of the rotation in Toronto, and now he’ll get a fresh start in Brooklyn. The former lottery pick should fill out some minutes on the wing, which could alter Ziaire Williams’ place in the rotation. Agbaji could end up making a large impact for fantasy managers during silly season, but he shouldn’t be rostered at this point.

Quickley is back after a two-game absence and will start. However, his return pushes Jamal Shead to the bench, with Agbaji getting another start. The decision was likely motivated by the matchup, with Agbaji possibly being asked to defend Luka Dončić from the start.

Agbaji missed Thursday’s game against the Lakers for personal reasons and will miss Friday’s game against the Hornets as well. Without the 25-year-old guard, AJ Lawson could pick up additional minutes.

No word has been given on why Agbaji will be sidelined. However, the Raptors will have AJ Lawson back on Thursday, and he can step into a few more minutes.

No surprise here as Agbaji was initially listed as probable with a back injury. The 25-year-old shooting guard should see some extra minutes with Collin Murray Boyles (knee) out against the 76ers on Wednesday, but still isn’t a worthwhile streamer with Toronto’s starting lineup at full strength.

Agbaji is expected to be back after a four-game absence, where he has played a limited reserve role this year. Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter should lose out on a few minutes, but there won’t be much of an impact on the rotation.

Minutes after being downgraded from questionable to doubtful, Agbaji was officially ruled out for Monday’s game. While his continued absence does not significantly affect fantasy basketball, it has led to a few more minutes for fellow reserves Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter. However, neither has been productive enough to merit being rostered in redraft leagues.

Agbaji has missed Toronto’s last three games, which has led to more minutes for fellow reserves Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter. Neither has done enough to merit being streamed during this stretch, and there won’t be a reason to consider rostering Agbaji if he’s available, either.

This will be a second straight absence for Agbaji. Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter will be the primary reserve wings once again, though that didn’t yield enough minutes for either to be worth streaming against Brooklyn on Tuesday. Both can be left on the waiver wire.

Agbaji, who’s averaging 13.9 minutes per game this season, did not play in Tuesday’s win over the Nets. Ja’Kobe Walter and Gradey Dick were the players whose minutes increased in that contest, but neither will be worth streaming if Agbaji remains out.

Agbaji’s role has been a small one this season, even in his lone start, which came on Saturday. Jakob Poeltl will be back, so Agbaji wouldn’t have started regardless. Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter will fill the reserve wing minutes with Agbaji unavailable.

Agbaji replaces Jakob Poeltl (back) on the second night of a back-to-back. Rookie Collin Murray-Boyles should still play a large role off the bench, but he won’t get the boost from being part of the starting unit.

In addition to Jakob Poellt, the Raptors will be without Scottie Barnes for the team’s second preseason game. He’ll be replaced in the starting lineup by Agbaji, with Mogbo once again replacing Poeltl. While Agbaji should play rotation minutes once the regular season begins, he offers minimal fantasy value playing behind Barnes, Ingram and Barrett.

Agbaji got off to a scorching hot start to Friday’s game and scored 17 points in the first quarter alone while shooting a perfect 6-of-6 from the floor, which included five three-pointers. Unfortunately, he didn’t do much over the final three quarters to add to his spectacular start. This tied his season-high for both points and three-pointers, both of which were set in a late-November win over the Pelicans. Agbaji has been in and out of the lineup recently, so his status for Sunday’s finale in San Antonio is unclear.

While Agbaji finished one blocked shot shy of a complete stat line, this was not his best performance. The turnover count was more concerning than the field goal percentage, as he racked up four. However, the Raptors’ current rotation looks nothing like it will when the team is whole. Fantasy managers watching Agbaji with an eye toward next season’s drafts should keep that in mind; even if he were to blow up, his draft value will be pretty low with a healthy Scottie Barnes, Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett in the fold.

Agbaji has been part of the resting rotation in Toronto and has been paired up with RJ Barrett. Both he and Barrett were available in this game after resting on Tuesday, and they will both likely sit out against Detroit on Friday. However, Agbaji played well as a reserve on Thursday and had one of his best performances since the All-Star break. Still, the alternating availability makes him a headache to roster.

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.

Agbaji injured his ankle on February 28, and it’s unknown when he’ll be cleared to play in games again. While Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic said the third-year forward is progressing in his recovery, he has not been cleared for contact. Also, the Raptors will ramp up Agbaji’s activity slowly, so there’s a chance he won’t be healthy in time to impact the end of the fantasy basketball season. Ja’Kobe Walter and Jamal Shead will continue to play rotation minutes as Gradey Dick (knee) is also out.

Agbaji injured his ankle during the Raptors’ February 28 game against the Bulls and has not played since. He has shed his walking boot, but even with that development has not returned to practice. With the Raptors’ wing only now beginning to increase his workload, he’s likely to miss a few more games. With Gradey Dick (knee) also out, Ja’Kobe Walter and Jamal Shead will continue to play extended minutes, with the former moving into the starting lineup.

Agbaji exited Friday’s game after playing just one minute because of this ankle injury, and it will keep him out once again. Both Ja’Kobe Walter and Jamal Shead played 20+ minutes off the bench with Agbaji sidelined for most of the game, and that should continue on Sunday.
