Carton

Carton only appeared in four games for the Raptors this season, spending most of his time with Raptors 905 in the G League. He’d also struggled to remain healthy, limiting the guard’s opportunities to show what he can do. The Raptors’ decision to waive Carton frees up a two-way contract slot.

Carton’s continued absence does not impact fantasy basketball or the Raptors’ rotation. As for Quickley, his 2023-24 season was defined by an in-season trade from New York to Toronto. The move opened things up for the third-year guard, who provided 6th-round per-game value in 9-cat formats from January 1 onward. Quickley will be a restricted free agent this summer, and the expectation is that Toronto will do all it can to re-sign him. He’ll have a prominent role wherever he lands and is worth selecting with a middle-round pick in standard leagues.

Carton’s continued absence will not impact fantasy basketball, as he is not in the Raptors rotation when healthy.

Carton has only appeared in four games since signing with the Raptors, his most recent action occurring on March 5. His continued absence will not impact active fantasy leagues.

Carton will miss another game on Sunday, but his continued absence will have little impact on the team’s rotation.

Carton’s continued absence will not have an impact on fantasy basketball whatsoever.

Barrett made his return to the lineup after missing the team’s previous nine games, but he will sit out the second night of a back-to-back. With Agbaji and Carton remaining sidelined once again, Gary Trent Jr. should start in place of Barrett after sitting out on Tuesday.

Carton, who has appeared in just four games this year, is set to miss yet another contest. The Raptors point guard’s absence will help Javon Freeman-Liberty continue to play a significant role for Toronto while Immanuel Quickley (conditioning) ramps up for a return to the hardwood.

No surprises here as none of the trio have been given a timeline to return. Toronto’s most recent starting five was Kelly Olynyk, Gary Trent Jr., Jahmi’us Ramsey, Ochai Agbaji and Gradey Dick, with Bruce Brown logging 33 minutes off the bench. Trent Jr. and Olynyk have been the most reliable streamers, and none of the other players mentioned are worth adds in 12-team leagues.

GTJ sat out Friday, but it looks like he’s poised to return for the second game of Toronto’s back-to-back set. Quickley and Carton both remain without timelines to return, and they’re among a handful of notable absences, including RJ Barrett, Jakob Poeltl and Scottie Barnes.
