Boucher will start Wednesday's game against the Pistons, Josh Lewenberg of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Raptors fans and fantasy managers alike have been clamoring for Boucher to grab hold of the center spot, but he's only made two starts in 39 appearances. Even so, the rangy big man has still managed to be plenty productive off the bench as a scorer, rebounder and shot-blocker. In his two previous starts, Boucher is averaging a modest 8.0 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.5 blocks in 25.0 minutes.

Boucher logged 17 points (7-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot across 26 minutes in Sunday's 118-95 loss to the Bulls.

EDGE Analysis

Boucher continues to be a popular fantasy target off the bench for Toronto. He usually enters with the second unit and proceeds to outscore teammate Aron Baynes, but coach Nick Nurse prefers to keep the Oregon product in a reserve role, despite his excellent counting stats. Even with the limitation, the center continues to produce and is an every-night fantasy consideration.

Boucher (lips) is not on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Boucher had to get three stitches in his lip following Saturday's loss to Charlotte, but he's not going to have to miss any time in connection with the issue. Boucher should continue to have an increased role with numerous players in the league's health and safety protocols.

Boucher received three stitches in his lip after Saturday's 114-104 loss to the Hornets, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old played 32 minutes and had 16 points (4-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 8-9 FT), six rebounds, three blocks and two assists, but he didn't finish the contest unscathed. It's unclear if the injury will affect Boucher's availability for the second half of the back-to-back set Sunday at Chicago.

Boucher had 29 points (10-15 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 7-8 FT), nine rebounds, two assists, two steals and two blocks across 30 minutes off the bench in Thursday's loss against the Hawks.

EDGE Analysis

Boucher might have come off the bench for a depleted Raptors team that's dealing with the effects of a COVID-19 outbreak, but the big man still found a way to make a massive impact on both ends of the floor -- he ended just one rebound shy of a double-double while also scoring the second-highest point total in the team. Boucher also scored 30 points in his most recent game before the All-Star break and continues to be a massive weapon in the Raptors' second unit.

Boucher had 30 points (11-15 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and five rebounds Thursday in a 132-125 loss at Boston.

EDGE Analysis

The absence of several key Raptors players allowed Boucher to shine. He logged career highs in points, field-goals made and three-pointers made off 35 minutes from the bench. Boucher will not post elite scoring lines consistently but offers significant fantasy value that makes him a must-have on rosters.

Boucher had 18 points (5-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), eight rebounds, two blocks, one assist and one steal during Wednesday's loss to Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

After starting against Houston last Friday, Boucher played off the bench in his usual role and posted his best performance offensively since Feb. 6. It was the center's fourth outing with at least 10 points over the past five games. Prior to Wednesday's matchup, Boucher was dropping 13.0 points and 6.5 rebounds per contest.

Boucher will come off the bench versus the Pistons on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 28-year-old started in place of Pascal Siakam (COVID-19 protocols) on Friday, but he'll come off the bench Wednesday despite Siakam still being sidelined. Aron Baynes will start at center for Toronto, so Boucher should still see plenty of minutes since the team is missing five players due to the league's health and safety protocols.

Boucher and the Raptors won't play the Bulls on Sunday after the game was postponed due to positive COVID-19 test results and ongoing contact tracing among Toronto players and staff, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Toronto previously played Friday against Houston without head coach Nick Nurse and five of his assistants due to the NBA's health and safety protocols, but Pascal Siakam was the only player placed in the protocol at that time. Charania's latest report indicates that the Raptors wouldn't have the minimum eight players available for Sunday's game, so more members of the roster look destined to join Siakam in the protocol. The Raptors are next scheduled to play Tuesday against the Pistons, but that contest suddenly looks to be in jeopardy.

Boucher will start in place of Pascal Siakam (COVID-19 protocols) for Friday's game against the Rockets, Blake Murphy of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Boucher is getting his second start of the season Friday. During his first start, he played 22 minutes and posted nine points, three rebounds, two assists and one steal. In the 23 games that Boucher has seen at least 20 minutes this season, he has averaged 15.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, 2.4 blocks and 1.2 assists.
