RJ Barrett (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He will miss his second game of the month for personal reasons. Barrett is among seven Raptors players who have been ruled out for the contest, and the list could potentially grow before tip-off.
A.J. Lawson exploded for a career-high 32 points on Monday against the Washington Wizards and might be a key offensive cog again Wednesday night. The likes of
Jamal Shead and
Jared Rhoden are also set to be more involved in the rotation.

RJ Barrett (rest) will not play in Friday's contest against the Utah Jazz. Toronto opens a back-to-back set on Friday and Barrett will be rested for the first leg. He will presumably be brought back into the lineup for the second game on Saturday against the Washington Wizards. Barrett's absence could give a further boost to
Ja'Kobe Walter, who has already benefited from
Gradey Dick's (knee) health issues.
Jamison Battle may also get meaningful action in Friday's game.

RJ Barrett (concussion) will return to the court on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is back in the lineup after missing five games due to a concussion. Barrett has delivered consistent fantasy value throughout the campaign but may need some time to get back to his best after missing nearly two weeks of action. His return will likely push
Ochai Agbaji to the bench, which takes away most of his fantasy appeal.

RJ Barrett (concussion) will not play in Tuesday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. He remains in concussion protocol, missing a fifth consecutive game.
Ochai Agbaji and
Ja'Kobe Walter have taken turns starting during Barrett's absence. Both players have performed well, but Walter tends to be more consistent. He averages 11.8 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.4 steals for the month. Agbaji has contributed 10.4 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.2 steals across five February contests. Barrett's absence also gives
Scottie Barnes and
Immanuel Quickley more scoring chances.
