Walter

Walter is back in the mix after missing Toronto’s last six games. While his availability won’t have a significant effect on fantasy basketball, there may be a few more minutes available if he isn’t under any restrictions. Immanuel Quickley (ankle) is a game-time decision, and his absence would open things up for multiple players.

Walter has missed Toronto’s last six games, freeing up additional minutes for Ochai Agbaji and Gradey Dick. With RJ Barrett returning from an ankle injury on Friday, there’s no need to stream Agbaji or Gradey if Walter remains out.

Walter will miss a sixth straight game as he recovers from a right hip pointer, leaving the Raptors down a man in their wing rotation. However, this does not affect fantasy basketball, especially if RJ Barrett (ankle) is available. Barrett, who’s missed the last seven games, is listed as questionable.

Despite a report that Barrett hoped to play Wednesday, he’ll be sidelined for a seventh straight game. Jamal Shead should continue to see additional minutes until Barrett is back, and with Walter still out, Gradey Dick could take on an expanded role.

Tuesday’s game will be the fifth that Walter has missed with a right hip pointer, and it’s unknown when he’ll be able to return. With RJ Barrett (ankle) also out, more minutes will be available to Ochai Agbaji and Jamal Shead, with the former receiving the starting nod in Sunday’s loss to the Lakers.

Walter will remain out for a fourth consecutive game as he recovers from a right hip pointer. While his absence does not affect fantasy basketball, it is another blow to the Raptors’ depth, as RJ Barrett (ankle) is also out. Gradey Dick should see his playing time increase, but he is not a must-stream player.

Quickley is out after being downgraded to doubtful Friday afternoon with a back injury. Jamal Shead and Ja’Kobe Walter figure to be more involved in the Raptors’ rotation with Quickley out.

Initially listed as questionable, Quickley is trending toward missing Friday’s game with back spasms. Jamal Shead, who has started the last three games in place of RJ Barrett, will figure more prominently within the rotation. Also, Ja’Kobe Walter could be moved back into the starting lineup if Quickley sits.

This will be a second straight absence for Walter, who had been starting prior to this hip injury. However, with Brandon Ingram (thumb) back, Walter would only be playing a small role off the bench if he was available. A.J. Lawson should take on a few extra minutes.

Walter, who was initially left off Monday’s injury report, will sit out after suffering a right hip pointer on Sunday. In his absence, more playing time should be available for the likes of Alijah Martin, Ochai Agbaji and Gradey Dick.
