He’s averaging 23.7 points, 5.0 rebounds, 5.7 assists and 4.3 triples per game while shooting 60.9 percent from the floor during that stretch.

It was a rough start to the year for Quickley, but he has gotten on track over the last few games. He was drafted in the seventh round in Yahoo! leagues, and this was the type of performances that managers were hoping to get more consistently. Quickley is averaging 18.3 points, 6.3 assists and 3.3 three-pointers per game over his last three outings, and he’ll look to stay hot in Brooklyn on Tuesday.

Quickley’s 10 assists were a preseason-high. The 26-year-old point guard has now made at least five three-pointers in two of his last three preseason games. Quickley played 34 minutes Friday as the Raptors get closer to the end of the preseason. After playing an abbreviated season last year due to injury, Quickley is once against being counted on heavily by the Raptors and could be undervalued in fantasy drafts due to the previous injury.

Quickley led Toronto in the scoring department thanks in large part to his five made three-pointers. IQ logged just 33 appearances a season ago, and fantasy managers will hope for a healthier season when selecting him on draft day. He profiles as a mid-round selection, likely becoming a viable pick around the fifth or sixth round in most standard drafts.

Quickley and Poeltl will end their seasons in street clothes, as both will sit out Sunday’s finale in San Antonio. While he finishes the season as a ninth-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats, injuries limited Quickley to 33 appearances this season. With the addition of Brandon Ingram at the trade deadline, Quickley’s scoring opportunities may decrease next season. As for Poeltl, the veteran center was a top-50 player in nine-cat formats and ranked just outside that threshold in eight-cat. While his scoring may take a hit next season, Poeltl does enough as a rebounder and defender to preserve most of his fantasy value. Jamal Shead and Jonathan Mogbo should remain in the starting lineup for Sunday’s game.

Quickley has been in and out of the lineup with rest days lately, which could explain his rusty jumper as he was just 5-of-16 from the field Friday. The 25-year-old point guard still had a big impact on the game as he was just two rebounds and two assists shy of a triple-double. It’s difficult to say Quickley will be able to build on this performance because it’s just as likely the Raptors give him another game off for rest.

Quickley and Poeltl will get another rest day on Thursday. And with the Raptors officially eliminated from postseason contention, don’t be surprised if there are more nights off for the veteran pair. Jamal Shead and Orlando Robinson are the likely replacements in the starting lineup, and both players would be worth streaming in deep leagues.

Toronto will continue to alternate rest days, and IQ and Poeltl will be back after sitting out on Sunday. Their returns will push Jamal Shead and Orlando Robinson back to the bench. They’ll be resting RJ Barrett and Ochai Agbaji for this game, so there will still be minutes off the bench for Shead and Robinson, though their upside will be limited in comparison to Sunday’s game.

The Raptors will continue to rest key players over the course of the rest of the season with Quickley and Poeltl getting the day off Sunday. Quickley had 19 points and nine assists in Friday’s win over the Hornets, but with the 25-year-old point guard resting it’s likely Jamal Shead will be in the starting lineup. Orlando Robinson will be the main beneficiary of Poeltl’s absence.

Quickley is one of the Raptors who has been absent nearly every other game for the last month due to “rest.” As Toronto does its best to tank, IQ won’t see the court as much as he should, but he’ll be effective when available, as he was on Friday.

Both starters got a rest night against Brooklyn on Wednesday but will be back against Charlotte. RJ Barrett and Ochai Agbaji are getting the rest nights on Friday, so the starting lineup should like quite different. Jamal Shead and Orlando Robinson started on Wednesday but will likely be pushed to the bench.

Toronto continues to stagger availability for its starters, and IQ and Poeltl will be the next men up to ride the bench against the Nets. The pair sat out Sunday’s matchup with San Antonio and were replaced in the starting five by Jamal Shead and Colin Castleton. Shead and Castleton may be in line for another start, but Shead is the only player worth streaming.

Quickley had a subpar shooting in the win over Washington, and he entered halftime shooting 2-of-11 from the floor. He was slightly better after the break, and he was able to do plenty of scoring at the free throw line. However, like the other veterans, Quickley was limited to just 26 minutes. Toronto came away with a win, though limiting the minutes of Quickley, Jakob Poeltl and Scottie Barnes was a clear move that they weren’t interested in that happening. Managers should keep an eye on Quickley’s availability over their final three games of the week and recognize that the minutes likely won’t be increasing.

Quickley and Poeltl will not be available for Sunday’s game, the first of two in as many days for the Raptors. Jamal Shead will likely replace Quickley in the starting lineup, which raises his fantasy ceiling. As for Poeltl’s replacement, Orlando Robinson and Jonathan Mogbo have been given opportunities in the past. Both should play more minutes, regardless of who starts.

Though it has been a disappointing season overall for Quickley, mostly due to a lack of availability, he has put together a strong stretch of production over the past two weeks. During that time, he has provided third-round value in nine-cat leagues. Fantasy managers had high hopes for Quickley, but numerous injuries and playing on a lottery team really hurt his chances of living up to the preseason expectations. Still, it is good to see him finishing strong to build momentum heading into next season.

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.

Quickley rested on Sunday, but he’ll return for the second leg of the back-to-back set. Agbaji will play both games of the set despite just returning from an extended absence. Both players should handle their usual workloads.

Quickley will sit out Sunday’s game for rest reasons, opening up a spot in the starting lineup. Rookie Jamal Shead, probable due to a shoulder injury, is a candidate to fill the void. He would be worth streaming in this spot, and there should be more opportunities for the rookie before the season ends.

Quickley sat out Wednesday against the 76ers, but returned Friday and had a solid game against the Jazz. The 25-year-old shooting guard had 20 points on 13 shots, pulled down five rebounds and dished out five assists. He’s had at least 20 points in four of his last six games now. Quickley has been a seventh-round fantasy value over the last three weeks, but the occasional rest days are a drag on his fantasy value.

Quickley was outstanding on Friday, with the 34 points being a season-high and the most he’s scored as a Raptor. While this has been a disappointing season for the Raptors guard, who’s had multiple extended absences due to injury, he’s been more productive recently. Over the past two weeks, Quickley has been a seventh-round player in eight- and nine-cat formats. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, he will not be able to build on this performance Saturday night. Quickley will not play against the Wizards.

Quickley has scored 23 points or more in four of Toronto’s six games since the All-Star break. However, the combination of limited defensive production and a mediocre field goal percentage means he has only been a top 100 player in eight- and nine-cat formats. That’s better than Quickley’s season-long fantasy value, so the uptick in overall production is coming at the right time for those who have him rostered. The Raptors play three games during Week 18, starting with Tuesday’s rematch with the Magic.

Quickley has had at least 20 points in five of his last eight games. The 25-year-old point guard has a varied skill set and can put up numbers in all offensive categories. No longer on a minutes restriction, Quickley can be a valuable fantasy asset heading into the fantasy playoffs, though availability has been a concern over the course of his career.
