Raptors' Bruno Fernando: Earns final spot on roster
Fernando earned the 15th spot on the Raptors' roster Monday, Doug Smith of the Toronto Star reports.
The Raptors claimed Fernando off waivers in July after he was let go by the Hawks. The 2019 second-round pick averaged 15.2 minutes per game across 45 regular-season contests last year, and while he's buried on the Raptors' depth chart, Fernando could see some playing time early on during the 2024-25 regular season if Kelly Olynyk (back) and Chris Boucher (knee) were to be sidelined.

Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Out at least another week
Coach Darko Rajakovic said Monday that Walter (shoulder) is a week to 10 days away from being cleared for full-contact portions of practice, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Walter participated in some parts of Monday's practice but still has multiple hurdles to clear before returning to game action. The rookie missed the entire preseason schedule due to the shoulder injury, so even when he's cleared to suit up, Walter likely won't factor into Toronto's early-season rotation.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Practices Monday
Barrett (shoulder) practiced Monday, but his status for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Cavaliers remains to be determined, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Barrett missed the entire preseason while dealing with a sprain to the acromioclavicular joint in his right shoulder, allowing Ochai Agbaji to see an extended run as a starter. However, Barrett is increasing his workload daily and should return to game action before long. Barrett's status for the regular-season opener should be released Tuesday afternoon.

Raptors' Jamison Battle: Inks two-way deal
The Raptors signed Battle to a two-way contract Saturday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Battle averaged 15.3 points, 5.3 rebounds and 1.4 assists in 31.4 minutes across 35 appearances for Ohio State in 2023-24 before going undrafted in the 2024 NBA Draft. As a two-way player, he will split time this season between the NBA and G League.

Raptors' Jahmi'us Ramsey: Let go by Toronto
The Raptors waived Ramsey on Saturday, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Ramsey was unable to secure a regular-season roster spot after signing an Exhibit 10 contract with Toronto earlier this season. However, the Oklahoma City Blue own Ramsey's G League rights.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Serviceable again Friday
Dick produced 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-8 3PT), six rebounds, two blocks and one assist in 27 minutes during Friday's 116-112 preseason win over Brooklyn.
Dick put together another encouraging performance despite struggling from the floor. Coming off a game-high 27 points in his previous outing, Dick once again led the Raptors in shot attempts. He is likely to open the season as the starting two-guard alongside Immanuel Quickley. Dick is somewhat unproven, but given the opportunity, he warrants attention towards the back end of standard-league drafts.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Drops 16 points in victory
Ogbaji compiled 16 points (6-11 FG, 1-6 3PT, 3-3 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal in 23 minutes during Friday's preseason win over the Nets.
Agbaji had his most complete performance of the preseason, continuing to play an increased role as a result of injuries to both RJ Barrett (shoulder ) and Bruce Brown (knee). Despite an encouraging effort, Agbaji is unlikely to crack the standard-league discussion in fantasy this season. Given what we have seen thus far in his career, he would likely need upwards of 30 minutes per night to sniff sustainable value.

Raptors' Immanuel Quickley: Tallies 10 assists in win
Quickley amassed nine points (4-7 FG, 1-2 3PT, 0-1 FT), 10 assists and three rebounds in 24 minutes during Friday's preseason win over the Nets.
Quickley made his preseason debut after overcoming a thumb issue, tallying a game-high 10 assists. After being traded to the Raptors midway through the 2023-24 season, Quickly will open as the starting point guard. This should put him in a great position to be able to reach his ceiling, offering upside in both points and assists. Managers wishing to acquire him will likely have to part ways with a fourth- or fifth-round draft pick.

Raptors' Chris Boucher: Exits with knee injury
Boucher will not return to Friday's preseason matchup with the Nets due to a right knee contusion, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The severity of Boucher's injury is not known at this time. He accumulated 10 points (3-8 FG, 2-4 3PT, 2-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal before exiting. When healthy, he is expected to provide frontcourt depth for the Raptors this season.

Raptors' Garrett Temple: Will play Friday
Temple (hamstring) will play in Friday's preseason finale against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Temple missed the last two preseason games versus the Celtics due to hamstring tightness but will return ahead of Opening Night. The 38-year-old will bring a veteran presence to the club, but he will likely struggle to find significant minutes behind a plethora of young options in a year geared toward development.

Raptors' Immanuel Quickley: Good to go against Brooklyn
Quickley (thumb) is available and in the starting lineup for Friday's preseason game versus the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Quickley was initially expected to miss Friday's preseason finale due to his left thumb injury but ultimately will be able to suit up. Quickley will head into the 2024-25 campaign as Toronto's starting point guard.

Raptors' Davion Mitchell: Retreats to bench Friday
Mitchell will slide back to the bench in Friday's preseason finale against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
With Immanuel Quickley (thumb) making his return to game action, Mitchell will return to his role off the bench. The 26-year-old is expected to play a significant role in the club's second unit in the backcourt behind Quickley and Gradey Dick.

Raptors' Jamal Shead: Cleared to play
Shead (hamstring) is available for Friday's preseason finale against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The rookie appears to have avoided a significant injury after leaving Tuesday's preseason game against the Celtics due to left hamstring tightness. After a productive preseason, Shead will have one more shot to prove himself before the regular season starts.

Raptors' Kelly Olynyk: Another absence coming
Olynyk (back) is out for Friday's preseason game against the Nets, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Olynyk will miss a third straight preseason game with back stiffness, though it's uncertain if the issue is major or if the Raptors are simply trying to keep the veteran big man as healthy as possible ahead of the regular-season opener against the Cavaliers next Wednesday. Olynyk will come off the bench when healthy since he'll operate as Jakob Poeltl's backup at center.

Raptors' RJ Barrett: Iffy for regular-season opener
Coach Darko Rajaković said Thursday that Barrett (shoulder) hasn't been ruled out for Toronto's regular-season opener against Cleveland on Oct. 23, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
Barrett has been ruled out for the entirety of the preseason while dealing with a sprain to the right acromioclavicular joint in his right shoulder. If Barrett is also unable to suit up in the regular-season opener, Ochai Agbaji would likely remain in the starting five.

Raptors' Ja'Kobe Walter: Another absence coming
Walter (shoulder) has yet to be medically cleared and won't play in Friday's preseason game versus the Nets, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Walter was seen shooting at Thursday's practice but will miss his final chance to suit up this preseason Friday due to a sprained acromioclavicular joint in his right shoulder. Walter's status for Wednesday's regular-season opener against Cleveland is uncertain.

Raptors' Immanuel Quickley: Another absence coming
Quickley (thumb) won't play in Friday's preseason game versus the Nets, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Quickley has returned to full-contact practice but will miss his final chance to suit up this preseason while dealing with a left thumb injury. However, the 25-year-old guard should be able to play in Toronto's regular-season opener against Cleveland on Oct. 23.

Raptors' Davion Mitchell: Dishes 10 assists Tuesday
Mitchell scored nine pints (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt) while adding 10 assists, three rebounds and a steal in 31 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason win over the Celtics.
Getting the start at point guard with Immanuel Quickley (thumb) sidelined, Mitchell continues to build his case for a significant role with Toronto. The Raptors have a young backcourt that includes Gradey Dick (13th overall pick in 2023) and Ja'Kobe Walter (19th overall in 2024), and Mitchell -- the ninth overall pick in 2021, now getting a fresh start after three seasons on the Kings' bench -- could fit right in.

Raptors' Gradey Dick: Pours in game-high 27 Tuesday
Dick scored 27 points (12-21 FG, 3-8 3Pt) while adding six rebounds and two steals in 32 minutes during Tuesday's 119-118 preseason win over the Celtics.
The second-year guard led all scorers in the game, an impressive achievement even for a preseason contest considering Boston stars like Jayson Tatum were seeing a full workload. Dick is the favorite to start at shooting guard for Toronto this season, a role that could lead to a breakout campaign. He's already demonstrated his acumen from beyond the arc by draining 1.5 threes on 36.5 percent shooting as a rookie in only 21.1 minutes a game.
