Wed Mar 16 202221:26Gary Trent Jr. Probable For Wednesday
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This is good news after Trent was previously listed as questionable earlier in the day. He's dealing with a non-COVID related illness, but it sounds like he'll give it a go. That being said, Trent will be a risky DFS option for Wednesday's slate. There's a chance he's somewhat limited due to this illness, so it's best to look elsewhere in DFS contests.

Wed Mar 16 202215:12Gary Trent Jr. Listed As Questionable On Wednesday
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He's a new addition to the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. His absence could mean a boost for Armoni Brooks and Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk. However, neither of them bring enough to the table to warrant using as a streaming option. Fred VanVleet and Scottie Barnes could see a spike in usage if Trent sits this one out. Both players could be a popular DFS options if the Raptors are shorthanded.

Fri Jan 21 202218:52Gary Trent Jr. Returns To Action For Friday’s Game
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been given the green light to take the floor for Friday's contest against the Wizards, marking a return to action after a six-game absence. Trent and his three-point marksmanship walk into a difficult matchup out of the gate, as Washington has yielded the fewest made triples to the opposition (10.7 per game) this season. That being said, season-long fantasy managers can roll the dice on Trent's upside, as he has enjoyed a strong 2021-22 campaign that sees him on pace to set new career highs with 16.4 points, 2.8 boards, and 2.1 assists on a nightly basis.

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. This marks the sixth game in a row that Trent has missed due to left ankle swelling. It's uncertain when Trent will be able to get back on the court. He has attempted to warm up pregame, but his ankle continues to hold him back. Head coach Nick Nurse has been using six or seven player rotation lately. That being said, Scottie Barnes and Fred VanVleet should play close to 40 minutes until Trent returns.

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. Trent attempted to warm up for this contest, but the swelling in his left ankle continues to bother him. That means, Trent will miss his fifth straight game, but seems closer to a return. Fred VanVleet and OG Anunoby should see all the minutes they can handle. That being said, both should be strong options for DFS contests given the fact they will likely play close to 40 minutes.

Mon Jan 17 202218:30Gary Trent Jr. Will Attempt To Play
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) will warm up and see if he can play against the Miami Heat on Monday. He has missed each of the last four games due to a left ankle issue. The Raptors could certainly use Trent back on the floor, but fantasy managers will have to wait and see. His return would likely mean Justin Champagnie and Svi Mykhailiuk wouldn't have big roles in the rotation. It's uncertain if the Raptors plan to limit Trent at all, assuming he returns on Monday. Fantasy managers will have to check back closer to tip-off for more information.

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This marks the fourth game in a row that Trent has missed due to a left ankle issue. Svi Mykhailiuk should see increased playing time without Trent in the lineup. Although, he hasn't done much on the court lately. Fred VanVleet is likely to benefit the most with Trent sidelined. He'll be a popular DFS option with the Raptors banged up on Saturday.

Fri Jan 14 202218:28Gary Trent Jr. Not Playing Against Pistons
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This marks the third game in a row that Trent has missed due to right ankle swelling. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried as the Raptors are likely just being overly cautious. Svi Mykhailiuk should see more playing time, but isn't a favorable streaming option. Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam will be asked to pick up the slack, so both could be possible DFS options. Scottie Barnes (knee) remains a game-time decision, but his absence would only increase the usage of Vanvleet and Siakam.

Tue Jan 11 202218:04Scottie Barnes, Gary Trent Jr. Will Miss Tuesday’s Game
Toronto Raptors power forward Scottie Barnes (knee) and shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) have been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Phoenix. Both are dealing with soreness for their respective ailments, with Barnes having struggled to the tune of a 10% three-point percentage over his last four games. Trent's absence will mark his second straight on the sidelines, paving the way for Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk to play a larger role, while Khem Birch will remain among the starting five. Barnes has emerged as one of the league's premier rookies (14.7 PPG, 8.0 RPG), whereas Trent has established himself as a season-long asset (16.4 PPG, 2.7 made threes) in most formats. The next chance for either to suit up comes Friday vs. the Pistons.

Sun Jan 9 202217:55Gary Trent Jr. Won't Play Sunday
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This is a late scratch as Trent appears to be dealing with some ankle soreness. The Raptors will move Khem Birch into the starting five for this game. Although, Precious Achiuwa and Chris Boucher will see additional playing time as well. Boucher has the highest upside out of the three players. Hopefully, this ankle issue will only cost Trent one game.

Tue Dec 28 202118:08Pascal Siakam, Gary Trent Jr. Will Suit Up For Tuesday’s Game
Toronto Raptors center Pascal Siakam and shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. have been given the green light to take the floor for Tuesday's contest against the 76ers. Siakam missed the past two games due to the league's health and safety protocols, while Trent was sidelined for one contest due to the same circumstances. With Toronto still dealing with widespread injuries and absences, Siakam and Trent will garner significant DFS upside as the two go-to options on offense, even as they battle minutes restrictions. Siakam has enjoyed a tremendous December, averaging 21.3 points, 8.5 rebounds, and 3.7 assists across six contests, while Trent has served as both a three-point dynamo and steal extraordinaire in 2021-22, leading the league with 2.2 swipes per outing.

Mon Dec 27 202121:55Gary Trent Jr. May Be Back Against 76ers
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr.is questionable ahead of Tuesday's meeting with Philadelphia. Pascal Siakam and Khem Birch carry the same designation, with all three men attempting to make it back after missing time due to the COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Nonetheless, if Trent isn't in the lineup against the 76ers, Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk should get his fair share of minutes at the four. However, he only scored 10 points across 36 minutes while filling in against Cleveland on Sunday, so he is a risky option, although there is plenty of upside.

Toronto Raptors forward Gary Trent Jr. has entered the league's health and safety protocols. He'll join Delano Barton and Pascal Siakam in the protocols for Toronto. It's uncertain how long Trent will be gone, but he is likely to miss a few games. In the meantime, Svi Mykhailiuk could get some spot starts. Also, Yuta Watanabe could see additional playing time off the bench. Mykhailiuk could have some streaming appeal while Trent is sidelined.

Thu Dec 2 202118:00Gary Trent Jr. Returns To Action Thursday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. (calf) has been cleared to take the floor for Thursday's game against the Bucks. Trent returns after a two-game stint on the sidelines that allowed Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk to become a DFS option, although the latter is set to return to the second unit Thursday. Trent has upped his scoring average to 17.3 points across his first 20 contests, pitching in 3.1 boards and 2.1 steals on a nightly basis. His workload (34.4 minutes per game) likely earns him consideration in most season-long formats, especially while averaging 2.7 made triples per outing. Milwaukee's defense presents a tough test, as the Bucks are allowing opponents to hit at just a 32.3 percent clip from deep, the third-lowest mark in the league.

Tue Nov 30 202119:08Gary Trent Jr. Ruled Out Tuesday, Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk To Start
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. (calf) will be unavailable for Tuesday's contest against Memphis, allowing Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk to remain among the starting five. Starting in place of Trent on Sunday, Mykhailiuk dropped 12 points and snagged eight rebounds across 38 minutes, an indication of the role that he could play Tuesday. The matchup is particularly tantalizing for Mykhailiuk's DFS prospects due to the Grizzlies' league-worst 39.6 opponents' three-point percentage. When healthy, Trent has been an early-season breakout star for Toronto, on pace to set a new career high at 17.3 points per game. His next chance to suit up comes Thursday vs. Milwaukee.

Fri Nov 19 202104:33Gary Trent Jr. Drops Season-High 31 Points
In a tough 119-103 road loss to the Utah Jazz, Toronto guard Gary Trent Jr. led the points-scoring charge for a banged-up Raptors unit. Missing OG Anunoby (hip), Trent played 33 minutes, making 12 of 18 shots for a season-high 31 points. For good measure, the former Portland player added five three-pointers, three assists, two rebounds and a steal. The 31 points eclipsed Trent's previous season-high of 23 against the Knicks on Nov. 2. He's also becoming handy in the swipes column, averaging 2.4 steals per game over his last 12 outings. Of course, the points, threes and shooting ratios are the 22-year-old's main game, but the added dimension of steals has elevated him to a top-20 player over the last two weeks. He's rostered in 81 percent of Yahoo leagues, so it's worth a look to see if he is somehow still floating around your waiver wire.

Sat Oct 23 202113:56Gary Trent Jr. Thrives In Starting Role
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. made the most of his last-minute addition into the starting lineup in Friday's 115-83 victory against the Celtics. The 22-year-old replaced point guard Goran Dragic and fit very nicely with the starters, as Trent Jr. finished with 20 points, four steals, three rebounds, two made three-pointers and one assist on 7-for-13 shooting from the field. Trent Jr. is worth adding in any leagues where he is available as he will provide quality point totals and three-pointers made while playing alongside point guard Fred VanVleet in the starting lineup.

Wed Oct 6 202118:44Gary Trent Jr. Set To Make Preseason Debut Thursday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gary Trent Jr. is on track to play in Thursday's preseason game vs. the 76ers after a sore quad forced him to miss the opener. Trent, 22, is one of the more exciting upside fantasy cogs heading into the 2021-22 year amidst a new-look Raptors group that seeks scoring punch. While Trent did shoot just 39.5 percent over his final 17 games with Toronto last year, his scoring average rose to 16.2 PPG. Knocking down an average of 2.8 triples per contest last year in his first taste of starting on a full-time basis, Trent boasts terrific upside in category formats, especially when considering his 1.1 SPG average upon his arrival in Toronto.
