Dick contributed 32 points (7-20 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 14-16 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal across 38 minutes during Tuesday's 99-85 loss to the Bucks.
The second-year guard set a new career scoring high on the night, but Dick got very little help from an injury-depleted Raptors roster as only two of his teammates even scored in double digits. Dick has fired home multiple threes in nine of the last 10 games, averaging 21.7 points, 2.8 boards, 2.8 threes, 2.7 assists and 1.2 steals over that stretch, but it's still not clear what his usage will look like once the likes of Scottie Barnes (orbital bone) and Immanuel Quickley (elbow) are back in action.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Regresses in loss
Rotowire
Dick racked up seven points (3-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 122-107 loss to the Kings.
Dick lost his shot Wednesday evening, ending a torrid streak of scoring to begin the season. Prior to Wednesday's loss, he averaged 24.8 points over a six-game span and averaged 27 points per game on the road during that period. Compared to his results this season, Dick's performance should be considered an outlier, but Immanuel Quickley's (pelvis) return will reveal how Dick will be utilized in the future.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Leads team with 26 points
Rotowire
Dick ended Monday's 121-119 loss to Denver with 26 points (10-20 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, five assists, two blocks and three steals in 36 minutes.
Dick will be hard to bench after a red-hot start, and it appears he will have a firm hold as the top man at off-guard this season. The Raptors are hampered by injuries, but their trajectory will be intriguing when their first unit is completely healthy. Through eight games, Dick is averaging 21.6 points, 2.3 assists, 2.6 rebounds and 1.3 steals.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Another 30-point game
Rotowire
Dick contributed 31 points (13-26 FG, 5-11 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal in 32 minutes during Friday's 131-125 loss to the Lakers.
Dick scored a career-high 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT) in Minnesota on Oct. 26, bested that mark with 30 points (11-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT) in Charlotte on Wednesday and topped himself once again Friday. With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis), Scottie Barnes (orbital), Bruce Brown (knee) and Kelly Olynyk (back) all out, Dick should continue to have the green light for the rebuilding Raptors. The soon-to-be 21-year-old is the youngest Raptor ever to record back-to-back 30-point games.
Dick fouled out of Wednesday's 138-133 loss to the Hornets after recording 30 points (11-17 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 6-8 FT), two rebounds, one assist and three steals across 36 minutes.
Dick delivered the best scoring performance of his young career before fouling out, and the second-year guard is performing at a high level while doing an excellent job of handling a more significant role on offense. Dick has reached the 15-point mark in all but one of his five appearances and has reached the 20-point mark in two of his last three, so his scoring exploits have been enough to keep him relevant across all fantasy formats. He's also shooting 48.5 percent from the field, which represents an upgrade compared to his rookie year in 2023-24.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Team option exercised
Rotowire
The Raptors exercised the 2025-26 team option on Dick's contract Tuesday, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
After a modest rookie season, Dick has shown glimpses of a potential breakout season in Year 2, scoring at least 15 points in three of the first four regular-season contests while averaging 2.3 made three-pointers per game. However, it's worth noting that the sharpshooter's increased field-goal attempts are likely due to RJ Barrett (shoulder), Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) and Scottie Barnes (eye) all missing time due to injuries to begin the season. With the transaction, Dick is under contract through the 2025-26 campaign.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 15 points in OT loss
Rotowire
Dick produced 15 points (5-13 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, four assists and one block in 37 minutes during Monday's 127-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets.
Dick's overall numbers haven't been eye-popping, but the second-year shooting guard has started the season on a strong note. Considering that most of his fantasy upside will be tied to what he can do as a scorer, and mainly a shooter, the fact that he's scored at least 15 points in three of his first four appearances is encouraging. In comparison, Dick accomplished that feat only 12 times in 60 games as a rookie. The second-year shooter is making just 34.6 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc this season, but the positive signs are there even if the percentages are not.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 25 points in loss
Rotowire
Dick accumulated 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-3 FT), one rebound, two assists and one steal over 30 minutes during Saturday's 112-101 loss to the Timberwolves.
With Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) and RJ Barrett (shoulder) sidelined, there have been more opportunities for Dick to start the season. The sharpshooter is 7-for-19 from deep, averaging 16.3 points per game through three appearances. However, for those in category leagues, Dick hasn't provided much outside of his scoring, averaging 1.3 rebounds, 1.0 assists and 1.4 steals-plus-blocks in 27.7 minutes per game.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Scores 16 in blowout loss
Rotowire
Dick finished Wednesday's 136-106 loss to the Cavaliers with 16 points (5-13 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two blocks in 29 minutes.
Dick should be the Raptors' starting shooting guard all season long and go through the growing pains of adjustment on a rebuilding squad. His fantasy relevance will depend primarily on his shot volume and efficiency, since he doesn't project to be a stat-sheet stuffer. He wasn't especially efficient Wednesday against a strong defense, but it was encouraging enough that he played 29 minutes and took 13 shots.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Serviceable again Friday
Rotowire
Dick produced 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3PT), six rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 27 minutes during Friday's 116-112 preseason win over Brooklyn.
Dick put together another encouraging performance despite struggling from the floor. Coming off a game-high 27 points in his previous outing, Dick once again led the Raptors in shot attempts. He is likely to open the season as the starting two-guard alongside Immanuel Quickley. Dick is somewhat unproven, but given the opportunity, he warrants attention towards the back end of standard-league drafts.
Raptors' Gradey Dick: Pours in game-high 27 Tuesday
Rotowire
Dick scored 27 points (12-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt) while adding six rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason win over the Celtics.
The second-year guard led all scorers in the game, an impressive achievement even for a preseason contest considering Boston stars like Jayson Tatum were seeing a full workload. Dick is the favorite to start at shooting guard for Toronto this season, a role that could lead to a breakout campaign. He's already demonstrated his acumen from beyond the arc by draining 1.5 threes on 36.5 percent shooting as a rookie in only 21.1 minutes a game.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Drains five threes Sunday
Rotowire
Dick recorded 18 points (6-18 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 1-2 FT), two rebounds and a steal across 24 minutes in Sunday's 115-111 preseason loss to the Celtics.
Dick led the Raptors in scoring Sunday, and all signs point to him having a steady role for Toronto's rebuilding lineup in 2024-25. The second-year guard is slated to open the campaign as the starting shooting guard, so he should improve on the 8.5 points per game on 36.5 percent shooting from deep he averaged as a rookie.
Dick (ankle) will start Sunday's preseason game against the Wizards, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Dick suffered an ankle sprain during Summer League action, but he will be able to suit up for the team's preseason opener. Dick should have an increased role to kick off preseason action with Scottie Barnes (personal) and Immanuel Quickley (thumb) out of the lineup.
Raptors' Gradey Dick: Will miss Summer League finale
Rotowire
Dick has been ruled out for Sunday's Summer League game against the Spurs due to a right ankle sprain, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Dick played well in Summer League action but will be forced to miss the finale due to a right ankle sprain. The injury does not figure to linger into training camp, let alone the regular season. The 20-year-old is primed for a significant role for a Raptors team looking to build for the future.
