Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Efficient double-double in win
Poeltl closed with 18 points (9-11 FG), 11 rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal across 30 minutes during Friday's 119-106 win over the Pelicans.
Poeltl only missed two shots from the field in this win over the Pelicans, and the was a nightmare matchup for New Orleans' frontcourt. The veteran big man seems to have left his back issues in the rearview and has missed just three games since the All-Star break. He's averaging 12.6 points, 8.1 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.1 blocks per game in 14 games in that span.

Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Outstanding in win over NOP
Barnes ended Friday's 119-106 victory over the Pelicans with 23 points (10-14 FG, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, 12 assists, three blocks and two steals over 36 minutes.
Barnes was excellent in this win over the Pelicans, carrying the team offensively with an efficient performance but also leaving his mark in other areas. His ability to fill the stat sheet was noteworthy, and he delivered at least two tallies in each of the five major categories, something he's now achieved 12 times in the current campaign. Barnes continues to play at a high level for the Raptors, although he needs to be more consistent as a scorer to take his game to the next level. Since the beginning of March, the All-Star forward is averaging a strong line of 16.2 points, 6.0 rebounds, 6.0 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.2 blocks across 33.2 minutes per game in 13 starts.

Raptors' Brandon Ingram: Struggles with shot Friday
Ingram supplied 13 points (5-13 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal in 31 minutes during Friday's 119-106 victory over the Pelicans.
Ingram has gone five straight games without reaching the 20-point mark, and he's failed to hit the 15-point threshold in two of the last three, so it's safe to say he's been slumping a bit offensively. He's shooting 48.3 percent from the floor and 41.7 percent from three during that five-game stretch, so Ingram isn't really struggling with this shot, but rather having a lesser workload on the offensive end. That's an issue for fantasy managers who trust him to be a reliable offensive weapon for a Pelicans team that's already eliminated from playoff contention.

Raptors' Collin Murray-Boyles: Exits early Friday
Murray-Boyles won't return to Friday's game against the Pelicans due to back spasms, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports. He'll finish with nine points (3-5 FG, 3-4 FT), two rebounds and one block across 12 minutes.
Murray-Boyles won't play in the second half, opening the door for Sandro Mamukelashvili and Jonathan Mogbo to take on additional minutes the rest of the way. Murray-Boyles' next opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Magic.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Returns to Friday's game
Barrett (shoulder) has returned for the second half of Friday's game against the Pelicans, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Barrett left toward the end of the second quarter after injuring his left shoulder, but the veteran forward was given the green light to return to Friday's game. Barrett closed the first half with 10 points, four rebounds and three assists over 16 minutes.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Leaves for locker room
Barrett exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Pelicans due to an apparent left shoulder issue, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Barrett exited to the locker room with 1:39 remaining in the second quarter after getting tangled up with Zion Williamson while fighting for a rebound. If Barrett is unable to return in the second half, Jamal Shead and Jamison Battle will likely help pick up the slack.

Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Starting versus New Orleans
Walter will start Friday's game against New Orleans, according to Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic.
With Immanuel Quickley (foot) out, Jamal Shead most recently got the start in Wednesday's 119-94 loss to the Clippers. However, Shead will head to the bench for this one, with Walter entering the starting lineup. The 21-year-old has started 12 times this season, averaging 8.5 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 0.3 blocks and 0.9 steals in those appearances.

Raptors' Jamal Shead: Headed to bench
Shead will come off the bench for Friday's game versus the Pelicans, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
Ja'Kobe Walter will replace Shead in the first unit for Friday's game. As a reserve this season, Shead has posted averages of 5.8 points, 4.8 assists and 1.3 turnovers per game.

Raptors' Trayce Jackson-Davis: Won't suit up Friday
Jackson-Davis has been ruled out for Friday's game against New Orleans due to right knee tendinitis.
Jackson-Davis has played sparingly of late, but he may have tweaked his knee at some point during his four-minute appearance in the Raptors' 119-94 loss to the Clippers. His absence Friday shouldn't affect the Toronto rotation.

Raptors' Immanuel Quickley: Won't play Friday
Quickley won't play in Friday's game against the Pelicans, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
Right foot plantar fasciitis is keeping the 2020 first-rounder out for a third consecutive contest. With Quickley sidelined, Jamal Shead has started two straight contests and should remain the top point guard for the Raptors on Friday.

Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Comes close to triple-double
Barnes accumulated nine points (4-11 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-1 FT), eight rebounds, 12 assists, one block and two steals over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 119-94 loss to the Clippers.
Barnes had a rough showing offensively but thrived as a playmaker while leaving his usual imprint on the defensive end of the court. Barnes has been everywhere for the Raptors and can contribute in several ways. The All-Star forward has had double-digit assists in back-to-back games, averaging 15.7 points, 6.6 rebounds, 6.2 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.1 blocks per game over his last 10 appearances.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Struggles with shot in loss
Barrett chipped in 12 points (5-19 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 119-94 loss to the Clippers.
Barrett was heavily involved on offense, but the fact that he scored 12 points while attempting 19 field goals tells you all you need to know about his struggles. Barrett's prominent role on the Raptors' offensive scheme won't change any time soon, and he certainly won't see a diminished role for one subpar outing. The star forward is averaging 21.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game while shooting 53.9 percent from the floor over his last 10 games, so there's a high chance this was nothing more than an off night for the seven-year veteran.

Raptors' Brandon Ingram: Scores 18, fills stat sheet
Ingram ended with 18 points (8-18 FG, 2-3 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 119-94 loss to the Clippers.
Ingram returned from a one-game absence due to a heel injury that kept him out Monday against the Jazz, and he posted his usual numbers while showing he can get involved in other areas. Ingram has scored at least 18 points in six of his last seven appearances, averaging 21.9 points, 4.9 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game over that stretch.

Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Available to return
Poeltl (face) is available to return to Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Kayla Grey of TSN reports.
Poeltl took an elbow to the face and had to receive five stitches above his right eye. After receiving the stitches, he's been cleared to return. That means Sandro Mamukelashvili and Collin Murray-Boyles will return to their typical reserve roles.

Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Heads to locker room
Poeltl went back to the locker room during Wednesday's game against the Clippers after being hit in the face, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
Poeltl looked to have taken an elbow to the face, and he exited the contest bloody. For now, the 30-year-old center can be considered questionable to return. While he's sidelined, look for Sandro Mamukelashvili and Collin Murray-Boyles to handle most of the center duties.

Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Headed to bench
Walter will come off the bench for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Walter will retreat to the second unit with Brandon Ingram (heel) back and starting. As a reserve this season, Walter owns averages of 6.7 points, 2.1 rebounds, 1.3 triples and 1.0 steals per game.

Raptors' Sandro Mamukelashvili: Pushed back to bench
Mamukelashvili will come off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Clippers, Tomer Azarly of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Mamukelashvili made a spot start last time out, but now that Jakob Poeltl (back) is available, Mamukelashvili will come off the bench. The 26-year-old is averaging 9.7 points, 4.5 rebounds and 1.6 assists across 19.9 minutes per game as a reserve this season.
