Available Sunday Barrett (shoulder) is available for Sunday's game against the Magic.

Impact Barrett suffered a minor shoulder injury during Friday's game against the Pelicans, which had his status in the air for Sunday. In the end, Barrett will be able to play through the injury. Over his last five games, he is averaging 17.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.8 assists in 29.0 minutes per contest.

Upgraded to probable Barrett (shoulder) has been upgraded to probable heading into Sunday's game against Orlando.

Impact Barrett wasn't listed on Saturday's injury report before popping up on it Sunday. While the questionable tag wasn't an encouraging sign, the latest update indicates he will likely be out there versus Orlando. With that in mind, if Barrett suffers a setback and gets ruled out, Collin Murray-Boyles, Ja'Kobe Walter or Jamal Shead would presumably move into the starting lineup.

Listed as questionable Barrett (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Orlando, according to Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca.

Impact Barrett briefly exited Friday's 119-106 win over New Orleans due to the shoulder injury but was able to return to finish the contest. While the 25-year-old wasn't listed on Saturday's edition of the injury report, he is now questionable because of left-shoulder stiffness. With Brandon Ingram (heel) and Collin Murray-Boyles (back) also questionable, and Immanuel Quickley (foot) unavailable, the Raptors may need Jamal Shead, Ja'Kobe Walter, Sandro Mamukelashvili, or Gradey Dick to move into the starting lineup alongside Scottie Barnes and Jakob Poeltl, depending on who is cleared to suit up.

Returns to Friday's game Barrett (shoulder) has returned for the second half of Friday's game against the Pelicans, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

Impact Barrett left toward the end of the second quarter after injuring his left shoulder, but the veteran forward was given the green light to return to Friday's game. Barrett closed the first half with 10 points, four rebounds and three assists over 16 minutes.

Leaves for locker room Barrett exited to the locker room in the second quarter of Friday's game against the Pelicans due to an apparent left shoulder issue, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.

Impact Barrett exited to the locker room with 1:39 remaining in the second quarter after getting tangled up with Zion Williamson while fighting for a rebound. If Barrett is unable to return in the second half, Jamal Shead and Jamison Battle will likely help pick up the slack.

Struggles with shot in loss Barrett chipped in 12 points (5-19 FG, 0-7 3Pt, 2-5 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Wednesday's 119-94 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Barrett was heavily involved on offense, but the fact that he scored 12 points while attempting 19 field goals tells you all you need to know about his struggles. Barrett's prominent role on the Raptors' offensive scheme won't change any time soon, and he certainly won't see a diminished role for one subpar outing. The star forward is averaging 21.4 points, 5.1 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game while shooting 53.9 percent from the floor over his last 10 games, so there's a high chance this was nothing more than an off night for the seven-year veteran.

Strikes for team-high 27 in win Barrett amassed 27 points (10-15 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 3-7 FT), two rebounds and six assists in 25 minutes during Monday's 143-127 victory over Utah.

Impact The 27 points led the way for the visitors as four different Toronto players scored 20 or more. Barrett has drained at least one three-pointer in 14 straight games, averaging 21.5 points, 5.4 boards, 2.7 assists and 2.0 threes over that stretch while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor and 40.0 percent from beyond the arc.

Extends impressive streak Barrett contributed 23 points (9-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, two assists and one block over 27 minutes during Wednesday's 139-109 win over Chicago.

Impact Barrett reached the 20-point mark for a third straight game, and he's hit this threshold in eight of his last nine outings as well, so he's firmly settled as one of the Raptors' primary engines on offense. Barrett doesn't offer a ton of value in other categories outside of scoring and perhaps rebounding, but he'll continue to have solid upside as long as he continues to score the rock at the rate he's been doing it lately. Barrett is averaging 23.3 points per game while shooting 59.3 percent from the floor in his last nine contests.
