RJ Barrett

Barrett's 9-16 shooting marked an efficient night from the floor, well above his 49.1% mark from last season. His 9 rebounds were a season high through two games and nearly double his 5.3 average from a year ago. The 4 assists matched his typical playmaking output, while the zero turnovers were a clean bonus. His 34 minutes and starter role remained unchanged from his 100% start share last season.

The Raptors have one game left this week, Friday. Barrett ranks 125th overall with a Roundup Score of 61 out of 99. In nine-category leagues, his modest steal and block production limits his ceiling, though the rebounds and efficient scoring provide value. Points league managers can count on his projected 29.5 fantasy points per game as a steady contributor.

What to do

• Start Barrett in his final game this week on Friday.

• Hold Barrett as a fixture in Toronto's starting lineup.

• Value his scoring efficiency and rebounding in points leagues, where he projects for 29.5 fantasy points per game.
