Jahmi'us

Ramsey

The Raptors have made two changes to their starting lineup, with Temple and Ramsey replacing Javon Freeman-Liberty and Bruce Brown. Ramsey is worth streaming in deep leagues due to Toronto’s lack of available bodies, but only in deep leagues. Dick and Olynyk have the most to gain due to the absences, so they should be the first players fantasy managers scour the waiver wire for.

Trent was absent from the initial injury report and is now questionable to play. Given how shorthanded the Raptors are, especially on the perimeter, losing GTJ would be suboptimal. Jordan Nwora and Jahmi’us Ramsey would play more minutes if Trent cannot go, with the former being the more reliable streamer.

Carton will not be available for Thursday’s game, and his absence will not impact fantasy basketball. Javon Freeman-Liberty and Jahmi’us Ramsey can absorb the minutes that would have gone to Carton, but neither is worth streaming.

Ramsey barely played for the Kings over the last two seasons (32 games, 3.1 points, 7 minutes) and it’s unclear what his role would be with the Thunder. Our guess is a lot of time in the G-League and maybe some emergency tanking appearances for the big club.

Ramsey was just signed yesterday, but the Thunder have been cycling through non-guaranteed contracts to bring into training camp. This move won’t impact anyone’s draft boards.

Ramsey will likely play with OKC’s G-League affiliate this season. He won’t be a factor in fantasy hoops until the Thunder shut down their active roster to improve their lottery odds.

The Kings have been active on the trade market, which means that they need to free up some room on the roster. Ramsey, a second-round pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, is one of the casualties, with Robert Woodard being the other. This won’t have an impact as far as fantasy is concerned.

They were brought in while Harrison Barnes (right foot sprain) was sidelined, but he played on Wednesday and should continue to going forward. This won’t affect your fantasy team.

With G-League training camps ending, a few teams such as Sacramento, and San Antonio have recalled a few players who will be splitting time between the Association and the G-league. With that being said, neither Ramsey nor Woodard II is relevant in fantasy basketball.

The Kings rode a solid defensive performance and a strong third quarter, as well as some hot shooting to a victory on Tuesday night. Sacramento knocked down 14 threes at a 41.2% clip and had six players score in double-figures with no player logging more than 22 minutes. Davion Mitchell continued to impress, scoring 12 points with four assists and two rebounds with three turnovers, but his biggest asset is as a pest on the ball, not allowing opposing guards to beat him off the bounce. Jahmi’us Ramsey added 13 points on 5-of-8 shooting (1-of-3 3-pointers) with two rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 22 minutes of action.
