Wed Apr 9 | 09:51 | Scottie Barnes Questionable Wednesday |
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (hand) is considered questionable for Wednesday's action against the Charlotte Hornets. He may sit out a third straight game due to a hand injury. The Raptors look set to roll out a shorthanded lineup again, as Ochai Agbaji (rest), Jamal Shead (rest), and Ja'Kobe Walter (hip) are already ruled out, and Jakob Poeltl (hand) is also carrying a questionable tag. This could greatly boost the offensive usage of RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley. Meanwhile, Jonathan Mogbo will likely continue to start in Barnes' place. |

According to Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun, Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes(hand) won't play against the Detroit Pistons on Friday.

On Wednesday versus the Blazers, Barnes finished with five points, two rebounds, five assists and one steal in 27 minutes on the floor. He's been bothered by a contusion on his right hand, which has undoubtedly impacted his shooting numbers recently. While Barnes is sidelined, Jonathan Mogboand Cole Swider will be in line for a more prominent role in tonight's contest. |

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (hand) is available for Thursday's game against the Trail Blazers. The 23-year-old has been bothered by a contusion on his right hand, which has undoubtedly impacted his shooting numbers of late. It's unknown how much action Barnes will continue to receive heading toward the end of the 2024-25 campaign. But as far as Thursday night is concerned, the absences of Gradey Dick (knee), Jakob Poeltl (rest), and Immanuel Quickley (rest) should keep Barnes busy on both ends of the floor. |

Thu Dec 19 2024 | 18:12 | Scottie Barnes Cleared To Return Thursday |
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) will return from a two-game absence on Thursday against Brooklyn. The team has upgraded him from questionable to available. Barnes' workload might be limited due to the nature of his injury, but he should be heavily involved in the offense when he's on the court, as Toronto won't have the services of RJ Barrett (illness) and Jakob Poeltl (groin) on Thursday. Barnes has averaged 20.8 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 8.6 assists in four appearances this month. |

Thu Dec 19 2024 | 10:00 | Scottie Barnes Listed As Questionable Thursday |
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) might return to action on Thursday against Brooklyn, with the team listing him as questionable for the game. He suffered a nasty ankle sprain against the Knicks last week, but it looks like Barnes could end up missing just two contests because of the injury. It's been an injury-hit campaign for the 2024 All-Star, as Barnes has been limited to 14 outings. He's averaging 20.6 points, 8.4 rebounds, 7.4 assists, and 1.3 steals. Brooklyn has the fourth-worst defensive rating in the league, so Barnes should do plenty of damage if he's cleared to return on Thursday. |

Mon Dec 16 2024 | 19:19 | Scottie Barnes May Ramp Up Activity Level During The Week |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) practiced again on Monday morning, one day after it was reported he went through a "light workout" on Sunday, which involved running and jumping. The 23-year-old sprained his ankle in a matchup with the New York Knicks on December 9 and has been working his way back since. But things seem to be moving in a favorable direction, with head coach Darko Rajakovic hoping to increase Barnes activity level during the week. With a lightened schedule due to the NBA Cup, Barnes may not miss as much time. However, until he's ready to get back on the floor, rookie Jonathan Mogbo, averaging 7.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals in two starts this season, should continue to fill the void in the lineup. |

Sun Dec 15 2024 | 15:55 | Scottie Barnes Goes Through A "Light Workout" On Sunday |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) participated in Sunday's practice. While he wasn't a full participant, he still did some running and jumping with his assistant coaches. The 23-year-old sprained his ankle during a recent meeting with the Knicks on December 9 and has already missed a game. Although Barnes will be sidelined for a few more contests at the very least, his partial availability for Sunday's practice is a positive step in the right direction. In the meantime, RJ Barrett and Gradey Dick should see a bump in scoring opportunities, with Ochai Agbaji also in line for added production. |

Wed Dec 11 2024 | 19:16 | Scottie Barnes To "Miss Several Weeks" |
According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) will "miss several weeks" due to a right ankle sprain suffered in Monday's loss to the New York Knicks. The 23-year-old already spent time on the shelf this season because of a right orbital fracture, costing him 11 games, so it's not an ideal situation. Barnes, who agreed to a lucrative contract extension during the offseason, has averaged career-highs in points (20.6), rebounds (8.4), and assists (7.4). But with Toronto winning just two games while he was sidelined earlier in the season, the team will need to figure out how to stay afloat until he returns. With Immanuel Quickley (elbow) also out, RJ Barrett will be tasked with picking up more of the scoring load. Gradey Dick, Davion Mitchell, Ochai Agbaji, and Ja'Kobe Walter may also see an uptick in offensive opportunities for the foreseeable future. |

Tue Dec 10 2024 | 09:12 | X-Rays On Scottie Barnes' Ankle Negative |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) suffered his second injury of the season in Monday's 113-108 loss to the Knicks, but there was some good news: initial X-rays on Barnes' right ankle/foot came back negative. He will be further evaluated on Tuesday. Barnes missed 11 games earlier in the season due to an orbital bone fracture. Defensive specialist Davion Mitchell and rookie Ja'Kobe Walter, who scored a career-high 19 points in Monday's defeat, will likely figure more prominently in the rotation if Barnes has to miss some time. |

Thu Nov 21 2024 | 18:08 | Scottie Barnes Returning On Thursday |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (eye) will make his return to the court for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Barnes is back after missing 11 games due to a right orbital fracture. The expectation is that Barnes is going to be under a minutes limit during his first game back. Ochai Agbaji has been playing heavy minutes lately, but will probably take a backseat with Barnes back in the mix. RJ Barrett might see his usage take a hit, but he should still be able to offer strong fantasy value. Fantasy managers in season-long formats can get Barnes back in their lineups on Thursday. |

Wed Nov 20 2024 | 16:32 | Scottie Barnes Officially Listed As Questionable |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes(eye) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Barnes has been out for several weeks after sustaining a right orbital fracture versus Denver on October 28th. He practiced Wednesday after missing 11 consecutive contests.

Wed Oct 30 2024 | 13:56 | Scottie Barnes Out At Least Three Weeks |
Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (eye) will be re-evaluated in three weeks after sustaining a right orbital fracture in Monday's overtime loss to the Denver Nuggets. It's a tough blow for the Raptors, considering the team just had RJ Barrett (shoulder) make his 2024-25 debut. It's also rough for Barnes' fantasy managers, especially since he averaged 19.3 points, 7.8 rebounds, 6.8 assists, and 2.0 steals in his first four games. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) still without a return date, Barrett, Gradey Dick, and Jakob Poeltl should do most of the heavy lifting on the offensive end. Fantasy managers can also consider Ochai Agbaji and Davion Mitchell for streaming purposes until Quickley or Barnes are back on the floor. |
