Scottie Barnes' stardom, Pascal Siakam's fight and more: 10 reasons to feel good about the struggling Raptors After losing 104-96 to the Cavaliers, Toronto is three games out of the sixth seed. But it isn't all bad news for the Raptors.

MARCH 7, 2022 • THEATHLETIC.COM

Posts double-double as point guard Barnes racked up 19 points (8-14 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-6 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists and three steals in 42 minutes during Sunday's 104-96 loss to the Cavaliers.

Impact Barnes served as the Raptors' starting point guard with Fred VanVleet (knee) and Malachi Flynn (hamstring) sidelined against Cleveland, and he posted his fourth double-double in his last five appearances. He's now played at least 34 minutes in each of the last five matchups, and he should continue to handle a prominent role while VanVleet and Flynn are out.

Impact Since Malachi Flynn (hamstring) and Fred VanVleet (knee) remain sidelined against Cleveland, Barnes will take on a more prominent role in Toronto's offense once again. He's posted double-doubles in three of his last four appearances and has averaged 19.3 points, 10.3 rebounds and 3.5 assists in 38.3 minutes per game during that time. Pascal Siakam and Dalano Banton are also in line for increased run Sunday.

Nabs second straight double-double Barnes produced 18 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block across 41 minutes in Tuesday's 109-108 win over the Nets.

Impact Toronto remained without Fred VanVleet (knee) and OG Anunoby (finger) for the second game in a row, so Barnes was once again thrust into a more prominent role while playing his most minutes since Feb. 1. Though he couldn't replicate the 28-point, 16-rebound, five-steal performance he delivered in Monday's blowout win over Brooklyn, Barnes at least came through with another fantasy-friendly line in the second half of the back-to-back set. His numbers should start to trend down once VanVleet and Anunoby rejoin the lineup, but the rookie will remain a must-roster player in any case.

Career-best performance Monday Barnes logged 28 points (12-14 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 16 rebounds, four assists, one block and five steals over 34 minutes during Monday's 133-97 win over the Nets.

Impact Barnes was a man possessed during Monday's win, dominating on both ends of the floor. His 16 rebounds marked a career high, while the steals and points both matched his career-best numbers. Despite a few poor performances this season, it has to be said that Barnes has been arguably the most surprising rookie when it comes to fantasy value. Given the Raptors are going to be pushing for a playoff spot, his ROS value should be able to stick.

Lone bright spot in ugly loss Barnes posted 28 points (13-18 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two steals in 32 minutes during Friday's 125-93 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Barnes was efficient from the field en route to a career-high 28 points, but he was the lone bright spot for the Raptors during an ugly loss. The rookie's dominating performance should be encouraging for fantasy managers after the talented youngster struggled during Toronto's final two contests before the All-Star break. Barnes will look to build off his career-high performance Saturday against the Hawks.
