Raptors' Nate Bittle: Doesn't scrimmage Thursday
Bittle (foot) didn't participate in Thursday's scrimmage, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Bittle was spotted in a walking boot in early September and is still on the mend from a right foot injury. He can be considered highly questionable for Saturday's preseason opener against the Heat until the Raptors offer an update on his foot.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Easing into camp
Leonard has yet to participate in contact drills and is unlikely to play in Toronto's preseason opener Saturday against Miami, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
The team has been content with a phased ramp up for Leonard to start training camp, and while coach Darko Rajakovic stated Thursday that the team will consider playing the star forward Saturday, it seems more likely that he'll sit out. Toronto has also indicated that a load management plan has been developed for Leonard ahead of the 2026-27 campaign to keep him healthy over the course of the season, which is something he hasn't been able to accomplish in recent years.

Raptors' Jamison Battle: Sitting out with back issue
Battle was held out of Thursday's scrimmage due to a lower back injury, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
This appears to be a precautionary move for the Raptors, who will take on the Heat in the preseason opener Saturday. Battle could be cleared to play Saturday, and he'll need to impress during the preseason to earn a role in the rotation.

Raptors' Kyle Anderson: Battling knee issue
Anderson sat out of Thursday's scrimmage due to a bruised right knee, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Anderson's knee injury is considered to be minor, but his availability will be worth monitoring heading into Toronto's first preseason matchup against Miami on Saturday. The 33-year-old signed a one-year deal with the Raptors in July and is competing for a spot in the frontcourt rotation heading into the 2026-27 campaign.

Raptors' Allen Graves: Sits out of scrimmage
Graves did not participate in the Raptors' scrimmage Thursday after tweaking his groin in practice, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Graves is competing for a reserve role entering his rookie season, so even though the injury is thought to be minor, it's currently costing him time on the court. He can be considered day-to-day for the time being.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Wants to stay in Toronto
Barrett wants to stay with the Raptors, per Sam Amico of HoopsWire.com.
Barrett is set for unrestricted free agency next summer following the expiration of his rookie contract extension, originally signed as a member of the Knicks back in 2022. The 26-year-old swingman tends to be a better fantasy investment in points leagues -- he's never shot at least 75 percent from the free-throw line and has averaged at least one steal just one time his career.

Raptors' Jamal Shead: Agrees to 3-year extension
Shead and the Raptors agreed to a three-year, $24 million extension Thursday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
The Raptors have now secured their backup point guard through the 2029-30 season. Last regular season, Shead averaged 6.6 points, 5.4 assists and 1.7 rebounds in 22.6 minutes per game across 82 outings (12 starts). He's poised for a similar role in 2026-27.

Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Larger on-ball role coming?
Barnes expects to spend more time on the ball this season, per Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca.
With positional eligibility across the guard, forward and center spots in fantasy leagues, Barnes make for a very intriguing early-round choice this fall. He shot a career-high 50.7 percent from the floor on a more talented Toronto team last regular season, and Barnes has also averaged at least 18.1 points, 7.5 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.0 blocks per game in three straight years.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Load management plan in place
Head coach Darko Rajakovic hinted Monday the Raptors will have a management plan for Leonard in 2026-27, per Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca.
Staying on the court has long been a major concern for Leonard, who didn't play in 2021-22 and hasn't made 70 regular-season appearances since 2016-17 with the Spurs. The focus for Toronto will be to keep the star forward healthy throughout the course of the year, which means Leonard could face sporadic absences. Although he carries plenty of risk in fantasy drafts for that caveat, Leonard averaged a career-high 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.9 steals per game over 65 regular-season appearances for the Clippers last year.

Raptors' Collin Murray-Boyles: To play both frontcourt spots
Raptors head coach Darko Rajakovic said Monday that Murray-Boyles will see time at both power forward and center this season, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Rajakovic added that Murray-Boyles could play alongside Jakob Poeltl at times, giving Toronto the option of using a bigger frontcourt. The second-year forward's ability to handle minutes at multiple positions could help him carve out a significant role in the Raptors' rotation, and he's likely to generate some buzz in fantasy drafts this year. There was also no mention of his sprained finger from the Summer League, suggesting he's 100 percent.

Raptors' Tyreke Key: Latches on with Toronto
Key signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Raptors on Thursday, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
Key will get an opportunity to compete for a roster spot during training camp. If he's unable to secure a slot, he'll presumably suit up in the G League for Raptors 905 to begin the 2026-27 campaign.

Raptors' Jakob Poeltl: Moving well ahead of camp
Poeltl is moving well and "looks good" ahead of training camp, Raptors general manager Bobby Webster said, according to Ryan Wolstat of the Toronto Sun.
Webster added that spending time at home helped Poeltl reset ahead of the upcoming campaign. The positive update suggests the veteran center is in good shape entering camp, though his workload and status will be worth monitoring as Toronto begins preseason preparations. Injuries limited Poeltl to 46 regular-season appearances in 2025-26.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Inking two-year extension
Leonard agreed to a two-year, $115 million contract extension with the Raptors on Tuesday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
The deal also has a player option for the 2028-29 season. After spending most of this past offseason in a holding pattern, Leonard is settling back in with Toronto for his second stint with the team following a six-year tenure with the Clippers that was tumultuous at times. The star forward is coming off one of the best campaigns of his illustrious career in 2025-26 with Los Angeles, during which he averaged 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game over 65 regular-season appearances.

Raptors' Malachi Smith: Upgraded to two-way deal
The Raptors are converting Smith to a two-way contract, Michael Scotto of USA Today reports.
Smith appeared in 15 regular-season games for Brooklyn last campaign, averaging 8.3 points, 3.4 rebounds and 3.3 assists while shooting 48.5 percent from the field and 43.5 percent from three-point range. The 26-year-old will occupy one of Toronto's three two-way spots and should spend much of the upcoming campaign moving between the Raptors and their G League affiliate, Raptors 905

Raptors' Jaden Bradley: Signs multi-year deal
Bradley signed a multi-year contract with the Raptors on Monday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
With Bradley on the official roster, the Raptors will now have a two-way slot open for several players on Exhibit 10 deals to compete for. Bradley, a 2026 second-round pick, is facing an uphill battle to crack the rotation ahead of Opening Night.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Nearing contract extension
Leonard and the Raptors have held advanced discussions and are nearing an agreement on a contract extension, Jake Fischer of The Stein Line reports.
Leonard is eligible to sign for up to two years and $126 million. An extension would solidify Leonard's long-term future in Toronto and remove any uncertainty surrounding his contract situation heading into the 2026-27 campaign. After his trade was recently completed, his fantasy outlook is much more straightforward heading into training camp.

Raptors' Kawhi Leonard: Trade finally completed
The Clippers and Raptors both agreed Monday to complete the trade sending Leonard to Toronto for Brandon Ingram, Gradey Dick, two unprotected first-round picks, one first-round pick swap and two second-rounders, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Over two months after the deal was initially agreed upon, it will finally be processed following the NBA's investigation of salary-cap circumvention involving Leonard and the Clippers. The star forward is coming off one of the best seasons of his storied career in 2025-26 with Los Angeles, having averaged 27.9 points, 6.4 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game over 65 regular-season appearances.
