RJ Barrett News, Rumors, Updates - Toronto Raptors

Iffy for Sunday Barrett (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Barrett hasn't played since Nov. 23 due to a sprained right knee but is now considered day-to-day and could return as soon as Sunday. The 25-year-old forward will likely operate under a minutes restriction whenever he's cleared to play, though his potential return would still leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Ochai Agbaji and Ja'Kobe Walter.
