Ochai Agbaji News, Rumors, Updates - Brooklyn Nets

Serviceable production Tuesday Agbaji finished with 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-3 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals in 36 minutes during Tuesday's 122-111 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Agbaji continues to play a sizeable role for the Raptors and to this point, he has made the most of a favorable situation. Across 22 games, he has averaged 12.0 points, 4.5 rebounds, 1.1 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 31.7 minutes per game. The eventual return of Immanuel Quickley, Bruce Brown and Gradey Dick will likely cut into what Agbaji is capable of. Until that point, he should remain a solid two-way producer.

Drains six threes against Pels Agbaji ended with 24 points (9-10 FG, 6-7 3Pt), six rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 119-93 victory over New Orleans.

Impact The 24 points and six made threes were both season highs for Agbaji, but the performance comes on the heels of a weak showing Monday in which he scored zero points in 24 minutes against the Pistons. Agbaji remains inconsistent, but the rebuilding Raptors can live with his growing pains. The 14th overall pick in the 2022 Draft has started every game in November, averaging 12.4 points, 4.2 boards, 2.2 assists, 2.1 threes and 1.1 steals over 14 contests while shooting 52.3 percent from the floor and 46.9 percent from beyond the arc.

Impact Agbaji didn't have his best scoring performance Monday, but he ended up posting a full stat line -- he recorded at least one tally in each of the five major categories and at least three in each of them except steals. Agbaji is averaging 13.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.7 blocks per game in November.

Keeps scoring streak alive Agbaji posted 21 points (9-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals across 36 minutes during Saturday's 105-103 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Agbaji has been one of the most pleasant surprises in a rebuilding Raptors roster this season, scoring in double digits in each of his last four starts and in eight of his last nine appearances overall. The 21-point output was the second time he surpassed the 20-point plateau, and both instances have come over his last four games, so he's making the most of his expanded role in absence of Scottie Barnes (eye).

NOVEMBER 10, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Posts16 points during loss Agbaji accumulated 16 points (6-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists and two steals across 33 minutes during Monday's 121-119 loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Scottie Barnes' (eye) injury will not require surgery, but Agbaji will continue to have a starting role until he returns. He's performed adequately over his last three starts, averaging 15.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 1.7 steals over that span.

Gradey Dick, RJ Barrett, Ochai Agbaji stock rising for Raptors With developmental wins as important as actual victories this season, the Toronto Raptors are off to a good start.

NOVEMBER 5, 2024 • TORONTOSUN.COM

Impresses from deep Agbaji finished Saturday's 131-128 overtime victory over the Kings with 22 points (9-12 FG, 4-5 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists, one block and two steals over 36 minutes.

Impact Agbaji looked like a completely different player from beyond the arc in this one after going 0-for-3 from downtown Friday night against the Lakers. The Kansas product turned in his best mark of the season in the scoring column and in an efficient way. It's not fair to expect this type of showing from Agbaji on a nightly basis, but he should continue to have chances to step up while Scottie Barnes (orbital) and Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) are out of the lineup.

NOVEMBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Moves back into starting lineup Agbaji will start Friday's game against the Lakers, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Agbaji will make his fourth start this season after two games off the bench. In five total appearances, he's averaged 11.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.8 blocks in 28.0 minutes. He's scored in double figures in four straight.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • THESTATE.COM

Team option picked up The Raptors exercised the 2025-26 team option on Agbaji's contract Tuesday, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

Impact With RJ Barrett (shoulder) sidelined to start the season, Agbaji was thrust into a starting role and averaged 11.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.7 steals in 27.3 minutes over Toronto's first three regular-season games. Barrett made his season debut Monday, but the Raptors remain shorthanded with Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) and Scottie Barnes (head) nursing injuries, so Agbaji should continue to play a prominent role. With the transaction, Agbaji is now under contract through the 2025-26 season.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Scores 15 off bench Agbaji posted 15 points (6-12 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal over 29 minutes during Monday's 127-125 overtime loss to the Nuggets.

Impact Agbaji was in Toronto's starting unit for the first three games of the regular season, but he returned to the bench Monday due to the return of RJ Barrett (shoulder). The Raptors are still shorthanded, however, as Immanuel Quickley is dealing with a pelvis injury and Bruce Brown (knee) is still on the mend. At least while he's hot, Agbaji is very relevant in fantasy leagues right now.

OCTOBER 29, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Retreats to bench Monday Agbaji is not in the Raptors' starting lineup for Monday's game against the Nuggets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Agbaji was in Toronto's starting five for the first three games of the regular season, but he will come off the bench Monday following the return of RJ Barrett (shoulder). Agbaji should see plenty of playing time due to Immanuel Quickley being sidelined Monday due to a pelvis injury. Over his last two outings, Agbaji has averaged 15.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 2.0 steals over 28.5 minutes per game.

OCTOBER 28, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Solid production versus Minnesota Agbaji had 19 points (8-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 0-1 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals over 31 minutes during Saturday's 112-101 loss to Minnesota.

Impact With RJ Barrett (shoulder) sidelined, Agbaji has started three straight games at small forward, and his offensive productivity has increased in each of those games. Over his last two appearances, Agbaji has totaled 31 points, 10 boards, three assists and four steals. As long as Barrett remains out, Agbaji should draw some deep-league streaming interest.

OCTOBER 27, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Drops 16 points in victory Ogbaji compiled 16 points (6-11 FG, 1-6 3PT, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Friday's preseason win over the Nets.

Impact Agbaji had his most complete performance of the preseason, continuing to play an increased role as a result of injuries to both RJ Barrett (shoulder ) and Bruce Brown (knee). Despite an encouraging effort, Agbaji is unlikely to crack the standard league discussion this season. Given what we have seen thus far in his career, he would need upwards of 30 minutes per night to sniff sustainable value.

OCTOBER 19, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Friday Agbaji will join the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game versus the Wizards, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact Agbaji will enter the starting five with RJ Barrett (shoulder) and Bruce Brown (knee) out. Agbaji made 27 regular-season appearances (18 starts) for the Raptors last season after being traded from Utah, during which he averaged 6.7 points, 3.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists across 23.7 minutes per game.

OCTOBER 11, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Working on jumper Agbaji (lower leg) was seen with coach Darko Rajakovic working on his hand placement for his jump shot, Esfandiar Baraheni of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Abaji struggled mightily with his outside shot in 2023-24, converting just 29.4 percent of his 2.7 three-point attempts per contest. If the 24-year-old forward can become a more reliable shooter, he should receive increased playing time in Toronto's forward rotation.

OCTOBER 3, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play Sunday Agbaji has been ruled out for Sunday's Summer League finale against the Spurs due to a right shin contusion, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

Impact Agbaji appeared in Toronto's first four games during the Las Vegas Summer League but will sit out the finale. He averaged 6.0 points and 4.8 assists in 23.2 minutes per game over his four appearances.

JULY 21, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting in regular-season finale Agbaji is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Miami, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Agbaji gets the nod with the first unit while RJ Barrett (knee) is sidelined. Agbaji has boom appeal as a volume shooter, giving him streaming credibility in Toronto's 82nd game.

APRIL 14, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Moves to bench Agbaji isn't starting Friday's game against the Heat.

Impact The Raptors have elected to shake up the starting five, rolling with Gary Trent at shooting guard and Gradey Dick at small forward. Agbaji will come off the bench as a result but should still play a big role in the rotation.

APRIL 13, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Grabs eight boards in return Agbaji (hip) tallied three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal across 35 minutes Friday in the Raptors' 117-111 win over the Bucks.

Impact In his return from a three-game absence due to a right hip contusion, Agbaji took back a spot in the starting five from Gradey Dick and didn't face any restrictions with his playing time. However, with Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett both recently returning from multi-game absences due to personal matters, there were few touches to go around for Agbaji, who finished with a team-low 8.4 percent usage rate on the night. Agbaji will likely have a tough time turning in fantasy friendly lines while the Raptors have at least a couple of their regular starters available.

APRIL 6, 2024 • ROTOWIRE

Starting Friday Agbaji (hip) will start at shooting guard in Friday's game against the Bucks

Impact Agbaji was originally questionable with a hip injury, but he will play through it. He has averaged 7.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.2 assists across 26.8 minutes in 23 starts this season.
