Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton will start in Tuesday's game against the Hawks. Anfernee Simons (forearm) and Scoot Henderson (concussion) won't suit up, so Banton will roll with the first five on Tuesday night. The 25-year-old went scoreless in Sunday's loss to the Knicks. However, with Jerami Grant (knee) also ruled out, Banton is worth considering for most fantasy lineups.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (illness) has been cleared to play ahead of Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Banton was questionable coming into this game due to a lingering illness. However, Banton will shake off the questionable tag and suit up on Tuesday. He's averaging 12 minutes per game in March, so he's not exactly a big part of the rotation. The Blazers are relatively healthy at the guard spot, so Banton is unlikely to offer much fantasy value right now.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. In his last game against the Boston Celtics, Banton scored 5 points in 8 minutes, shooting 50.0% from the field. This season, Banton has played in 57 games, averaging 7.7 points per game, 1.8 rebounds, and 2.1 assists with his field goal percentage being 41.9%. Scoot Henderson will likely play a more significant role if Banton is out this evening.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's clash with Brooklyn. The 25-year-old has been in and out of the lineup since December and might have to sit again because he is feeling under the weather. Banton had a good spell in the rotation early in the season, but this came during a time when the Trail Blazers were dealing with several injuries. He's only had a small role to play with a healthy squad, logging just six minutes last time out against Miami.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (hip) has been listed as questionable on the injury report ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Lakers. He missed almost the entire second half of December, playing in only one of the last six games. Now, Banton might also have to sit out the first game in January. With Banton out, Scoot Henderson has an opportunity to play more off the Portland bench. Henderson finished 2024 with a rough outing against Philadelphia, but he has been in good form lately. Henderson's last five appearances include a double-double effort and 11 total steals.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Banton will now miss his third game in a row and his fifth absence in the last six games. He continues to deal with a lingering hip injury, but will hopefully be back on the court for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Scoot Henderson should see a slight boost in fantasy value with Banton unable to play. Henderson has been playing better lately with double digit scoring in each of his last four games.

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Dalano Banton (hip) will be back in the lineup on Monday versus Dallas. He's available again after sitting out two contests with a hip injury. Banton adds a bit more quality to the Trail Blazers bench, with him averaging 9.8 points per game with 2.3 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 16.7 minutes across the season. However, he does not have much fantasy value with a healthy squad. In fact, this is a horrible matchup for the entire Portland bench, as the Mavericks give up the third-fewest points in the league to opposing second units.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Banton was listed as questionable coming into this game, but he will now miss his second game in a row due to a lingering hip issue. His absence won't have a huge impact on the rotation considering Banton is only averaging 16 minutes per game. The expectation is that Scoot Henderson and Shaedon Sharpe will absorb a few more minutes which should give them an uptick in value for Saturday's game.

Portland Trail Blazers guard Dalano Banton (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Thursday's game versus the Golden State Warriors. A late addition to the injury report, Banton may need to sit out the front end of Portland's back-to-back on Thursday with a sprained left ankle. The 24-year-old point forward has taken on an expanded role for the 21-58 Blazers down the stretch, averaging 18.7 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.0 steals, and 2.4 three-pointers over his latest 20 games (seven starts). Scoot Henderson could be relied on for playmaking duties against Golden State, averaging 18.4 points, 8.1 dimes, 3.5 boards, 1.3 swipes, and 2.1 threes across his last 10 outings, and his matchup outlook would also improve significantly if Klay Thompson (knee) sits out on Thursday.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (ankle) remains out ahead of Saturday's matchup against Dallas. The 23-year-old continues to deal with a sprained left ankle, an injury that will now cost him his third consecutive game. That said, Fred VanVleet (illness) will play versus the Mavs after sitting out Wednesday's meeting with Brooklyn, so Banton may not have seen enough work to be relevant for fantasy managers anyway.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's encounter with the visiting Mavericks. With Fred VanVleet (illness) also questionable, Banton should be in line for more work. The 23-year-old has played well this season. However, he's averaged 16.0 points, 2.0 steals, and 1.0 blocks in two starts. If VanVleet remains out, Banton should draw consideration in all formats, although his weak shooting percentages could negatively impact category managers. That said, if both Banton and VanVleet don't suit up, Malachi Flynn, who had eight points off a rough 3-for-12 shooting on Wednesday versus Brooklyn, may see north of 30 minutes.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (illness) is questionable against the Nets. Banton didn't suit up for Saturday's meeting with Atlanta due to a sprained ankle. However, he's now burdened by a non-COVID-related sickness, jeopardizing his availability. With Pascal Siakam (adductor), Precious Achiuwa (foot), Scottie Barnes (knee), and Otto Porter Jr. (toe) on the injury report, Banton may be in line for a more prominent role if he can go. That said, Malachi Flynn, who had 17 points in 28 minutes versus the Hawks, should continue to benefit from a production standpoint.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus Atlanta. Banton dropped 27 points on the Pistons on Monday night, so he was rewarded with another start in the team's previous matchup against the Heat. However, he injured his left ankle in the third quarter and didn't return. The Raptors are dealing with plenty of absences heading into the bout with the Hawks, with Pascal Siakam (adductor), Otto Porter Jr. (foot), Gary Trent Jr. (hip), Precious Achiuwa (ankle), and Chris Boucher (illness) also ruled out. As a result, Fred VanVleet, Scottie Barnes, and ... [More]

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton had an impressive outing in Monday's 115-111 road victory over Detroit, leading all scorers with a career-high 27 points and posting a number of other personal bests. He ran the show on the backcourt with both Fred VanVleet (illness) and Gary Trent Jr. (hip) out, adding four rebounds and four assists to his line with three steals and two blocks in 25 minutes. The Toronto native hit 3-for-7 from deep and shot 9-for-16 overall from the field with a 6-for-6 effort at the foul line. This was a special night for the 23-year-old and Banton played himself on the fantasy map. He could star again Wednesday versus Miami if the Raptors can't get their backcourt healthy.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton is expected to have his contract guaranteed and remain on the roster heading into the regular season. The 22-year-old appeared in 64 games for the Raptors last season, averaging 3.2 points, 1.9 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 10.9 minutes per contest. Banton scored nine points and grabbed two steals in Sunday's preseason win over the Utah Jazz and has impressed the coaching staff throughout training camp. As a result, Banton may be a fixture in Toronto's rotation in 2022-23 and could eventually see more work than Malachi Flynn, who is forecasted to serve as Fred VanVleet's backup. With that said, Banton shouldn't draw much interest from redraft managers, although he's someone to watch throughout the year.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton finished with a game-high 18 points during the clash with Miami on Friday. He also had six rebounds and three assists and thrived defensively by amassing three steals. The 22-year-old has shined throughout his time in Las Vegas and has played a big part in the Raptors' Summer League success. However, he still has a way to go before earning a consistent spot in Nick Nurse's rotation. Yet, Banton is someone to watch this season, especially if Fred VanVleet, Armoni Brooks, or Malachi Flynn succumb to injury.

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton finished with a game-high 18 points during the loss to Chicago in Summer League play. The 22-year-old logged 26 minutes, adding five assists, four boards, and two steals to complement his scoring output. However, despite draining three of his five attempts from deep, he struggled shooting overall by going 6-for-15 from the field. Nevertheless, while Banton had a promising performance on Tuesday, he has an uphill climb before he cracks a consistent spot in the rotation come the regular season, making him irrelevant for fantasy purposes.

Toronto Raptors point guard Dalano Banton (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game vs. Philadelphia due to a right knee contusion. Banton made his first NBA start Sunday with the Raptors' backcourt depth extremely thin due to injuries and the league's health and safety protocols, with Malachi Flynn now in line to play a significant ball-handling role, even as he has a minutes cap. Banton has largely carved out a niche for himself among Toronto's second unit, but at just 4.3 points and 2.4 boards per outing, he has not yet cracked the season-long fantasy radar. His absence also figures to funnel minutes toward Gary Trent Jr., Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, and Yuta Watanabe, with his next chance to suit up coming Friday against the Clippers.
