Scottie Barnes Ruled Out For Game 2 On Monday
3 years agoToronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 2 contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. This was expected after Barnes suffered a nasty ankle injury during their first meeting. This will be a significant blow to the Raptors offense, but at least Gary Trent Jr. (illness) and Thaddeus Young (thumb) are available. Precious Achiuwa will move into the starting five for Toronto on Monday. Fantasy managers should expect him to play nearly 30 minutes without Barnes on the court. He could be worth looking at in DFS contests. Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam should be asked to do more on the offensive side.
