Thu Mar 30 202314:56Will Barton Questionable For Friday
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Will Barton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against Philadelphia. The veteran could miss a second consecutive game after already being unavailable Tuesday versus Miami. Barton made a couple of starts for the Raptors lately when the team was short of healthy bodies, but his role overall has been very marginal in Toronto, as the 32-year-old has averaged only 12.2 minutes per game. Only a few will notice his absence if Barton can't play Friday.

Wed Mar 8 202321:47Will Barton Unavailable On Wednesday
Toronto Raptors forward Will Barton (illness) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The veteran forward is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so he'll sit this game out. Barton didn't have a huge role in the rotation anyway, but Gary Trent Jr. should see a slight bump in value with Barton sidelined. Fantasy managers can continue to ignore Barton because he normally doesn't play much when healthy anyway.

Fri Dec 23 202220:59Will Barton Listed Out On Friday
Washington Wizards guard/forward Will Barton (back) won't take the court Friday against Sacramento. The veteran is listed as out with lower back soreness. Barton had a pair of really nice outings only last week, but the team is starting to get healthy and his minutes have taken a big dip in the most recent games. There will be another returnee in Delon Wright (hamstring) on Friday. With Deni Avdija (back) also ruled out for the game, Corey Kispert looks set to play a big part in the contest.

Thu Dec 15 202211:36Will Barton Scores 22 Points Off Of The Bench
Washington Wizards guard Will Barton contributed in a big way to the offense on Wednesday night. The tenth-year guard ended the game with 22 points, nine assists, two rebounds, and one steal as the Wizards dropped this contest against the Denver Nuggets. Barton has been quite inconsistent but serves as a quality spot-start candidate across all deeper fantasy leagues. He also can be a good plug-and-play choice for certain matchups in DFS.

Sat Dec 10 202218:39Will Barton Remains Out Saturday
Washington Wizards guard/forward Will Barton (foot) is forced to sit out a second consecutive game Saturday versus the Clippers. The veteran is nursing a sore left foot. With a number of other key rotational players also unavailable for the game, Jordan Goodwill should fill a major role, and the likes of Deni Avdija and Corey Kispert will be asked to eat up as many minutes as they can. Goodwill posted a career-high 19 points with four rebounds, three assists and five steals in 34 minutes off the bench Friday against Indiana, and he should be set for another big performance Saturday.

Fri Dec 9 202210:11Will Barton Questionable Against Pacers On Friday
Washington Wizards guard Will Barton (foot) is in doubt for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers as he deals with left foot soreness. The injury itself doesn't seem too serious, but plenty of teams seem to err on the cautious side when playing against this rebuilding Pacers team. If the 31-year-old can't play, this would be his first missed game of the season. Jordan Goodwin would likely see some more action and he's acted as a solid streaming option when given the opportunities.

Fri Sep 30 202221:41Will Barton Misses First Preseason Game
Washington Wizards forward Will Barton (back) was unable to suit up for the first preseason game on Friday. The 31-year-old sat out this contest due to lower back tightness. This doesn't sound like something that is going to sideline Barton long term. He remains the favorite to start at the three spot heading into the season. He'll need to hold off Deni Avdija, which won't be an easy task. Barton could actually hold some fantasy value in Washington, assuming he stays healthy.

Thu Aug 4 202222:17Will Barton Might Be A Starter
Washington Wizards forward Will Barton has the inside track to the starting gig, according to Josh Robbins of The Athletic. Barton was acquired by Washington alongside Monte Morris earlier this offseason. As of right now, Bradley Beal, Kyle Kuzma, and Kristaps Porzingis are penciled in as starters. Both Barton and Morris are expected to battle for starting spots next season. The biggest competition for Barton will be Deni Avdija. Honestly, Avdija might be a better fantasy option even if he does lose the positional battle. He has improved on offense and is an excellent defensive player. Barton might be a starter, but he'll be a shaky late-round option in fantasy leagues.

Wed Jun 29 202210:53Monte Morris, Will Barton Heading To Washington
The Denver Nuggets and Washington Wizards have agreed on a two-for-two trade. Guard Monte Morris and forward Will Barton are heading to Washington while the Nuggets are receiving guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and point guard Ish Smith. Morris could wind up being the most impactful member of this foursome next year. The Wizards didn't have many point guard options prior to this trade and Morris looks to be the favorite to take on starting point guard duties for the team. Last year, he started 74 games for the Nuggets and averaged 12.6 points and 4.4 assists per game.

Sun May 29 202212:00Will Barton May Be On The Move
Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton could be on the move this summer. With Jamal Murray (knee) expected to be back at full strength and the increase in production of Bones Hyland late last season, Barton may be expendable as the organization looks to bolster things on the defensive side of the ball. The 31-year-old averaged 14.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 3.9 assists in 2021-22 and has one year remaining on his current contract. He has battled injuries and has yet to play an entire season throughout his tenure in the league. However, while Barton isn't an everyday fantasy producer, he can get it going on occasion.

Sun Apr 10 202210:30Will Barton, Monte Morris Questionable To Suit Up Sunday
Denver Nuggets shooting guard Will Barton (knee) and point guard Monte Morris (elbow) have been listed as questionable to play in Sunday's regular-season finale vs. the Lakers. Barton and Morris join Nikola Jokic (wrist) and Aaron Gordon (hamstring) as starters in limbo, as Denver decides whether or not to play some or all of their starting unit in an attempt to move up a spot in the Western Conference standings. Absences in the backcourt by either one of or both Barton and Morris would pave the way for Bones Hyland, Facundo Campazzo, and Austin Rivers to all see elevated roles, thereby becoming attractive DFS commodities. Fantasy managers will want to check back to see how Denver's rotations shake out.

Barton spent a few hours on the injury report on Sunday because of right knee soreness, casting doubt on his availability. However, he's seemingly good to go, although the ailment could limit him to some degree. While the 31-year-old should remain in the starting lineup for those participating in seasonal formats, DFS managers should consider an alternative.

Fri Mar 11 202222:04Will Barton Questionable For Saturday Night

The veteran has missed his last three games because of a left ankle sprain, which allowed Jeff Green to enter the starting lineup during the team's previous game versus Golden State. Nevertheless, if Barton is out again, Green should continue to benefit and be viewed as a viable streaming option in deep seasonal leagues.

Fantasy managers should consider Rivers a low-end streaming option, assuming he gets another start on Thursday.

Wed Mar 9 202221:17Will Barton, Bones Hyland Sidelined On Wednesday
Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (ankle) and guard Bones Hyland (knee) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Barton sat out on Monday and still isn't ready to get back on the court. Austin Rivers is expected to slide into the starting five with Barton out. He'll have decent streaming appeal with the Nuggets shorthanded. The loss of Hyland should benefit Rivers, Bryn Forbes, and Monte Morris. Both Morris and Rivers are looking like useful fantasy options on Wednesday.

However, his return will likely shift Austin Rivers back to the second unit. Rivers won't have as much streaming appeal with Barton back in the rotation. Fantasy managers should make sure Barton is back in their lineups for this contest.

Fri Jan 28 202219:18Will Barton Downgraded To Out
Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) has been downgraded to out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was expected to play, but will sit this one out due to a non-COVID related illness. The Pelicans are missing multiple key players, so the Nuggets appear to be playing it safe here. Austin Rivers has been hot recently and should continue seeing an increased workload. He's worth a look as a streaming option or possibly a sneaky DFS choice for Friday's slate.
