VanVleet cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols Thursday, Josh Lewenberg of TSN reports.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet, Scottie Barnes and OG Anunoby all cleared protocols Thursday and were on the court at practice, so the hope is that they'll be able to play in Friday's contest against the Clippers. If that's ultimately the case, it will be VanVleet's first game since Dec. 18 against Golden State. Prior to entering protocols, he averaged 21.3 points, 6.4 assists, 5.3 rebounds, 1.5 steals and 4.0 made threes over his last 10 appearances.

VanVleet was placed in the league's health and safety protocols Tuesday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The hits keep coming for the Raptors, who now have five players in health and safety protocols after VanVleet and Malachi Flynn were added to the list Tuesday. As usual, VanVleet is without an initial timetable, but based on how much time most other players are missing, he figures to remain out for 7-to-10 days, meaning he'll almost certainly sit out Toronto's next three games, beginning with Wednesday's contest at Chicago. The Raptors were initially scheduled to play Monday against Orlando, but the contest was postponed.

VanVleet and the Raptors will not play Monday against Orlando after the game was postponed, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

The NBA continues to announce a number of postponements as COVID-19 works its way through several locker rooms around the league. In this case, the Magic are the team with the virus outbreak, so the hope is that Toronto can play Wednesday's game at Chicago as scheduled. The Raptors will then be off Thursday, Friday and Saturday before finishing out a two-game week Sunday at Cleveland.

VanVleet amassed 27 points (9-17 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), seven rebounds, 12 assists, one block and three steals across 33 minutes during Saturday's 119-100 win over the Warriors.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet posted his second double-double over his last four appearances, and in fact, he ended just three rebounds away from putting up his first triple-double. The versatile guard has posted four double-doubles on the season and has also surpassed the 15-point mark in four of his last five contests.

VanVleet supplied 31 points (10-23 FG, 6-14 3Pt, 5-5 FT), four rebounds, nine assists and two steals across 47 minutes during Tuesday's 131-129 overtime loss to the Nets.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet surpassed 30 points for the first time since early November. While his production has trended downwards recently, VanVleet is still far exceeding his ADP. Trailing only Russell Westbrook in minutes played by a guard this season, VanVleet has been a top-three asset at the shooting guard position.

The NBA has officially postponed Thursday's game between the Raptors and Bulls, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Bulls are dealing with a COVID-19 outbreak that's landed 10 players in health and safety protocols, so the league has postponed Thursday's game in an effort to limit potential exposure. The Raptors will still have three games on their Week 9 schedule, including a back-to-back starting Monday against Sacramento.

VanVleet recorded 29 points (9-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one block over 39 minutes during Thursday's 97-93 victory over the Bucks.

EDGE Analysis

In a close affair from tip-off to buzzer, VanVleet supplied 13 fourth-quarter points en route to the win. Averaging 20.3 points, 6.2 assists and 5.2 rebounds per game, VanVleet has been a top-3 asset at the shooting guard position

VanVleet had 15 points (6-13 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and a steal across 42 minutes in Tuesday's 98-91 loss to the Grizzlies.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet's streak of 20-point games ended at three. A rock solid fantasy asset, Van Vleet is leading the league in minutes per game (38.3) and has statistically been one of the most valuable players in basketball. His 3.5 wins above replacement is tied with John Collins, and trails only Giannis Antetokounmpo, Stephen Curry and Nikola Jokic.

VanVleet amassed 27 points (8-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds, three assists and two steals across 40 minutes during Sunday's 109-97 loss to the Celtics.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet looked excellent across the board despite Toronto's loss, but that shouldn't be surprising since he's been the team's most consistent and reliable scorer almost on a nightly basis. He's scored 20-plus points in three games in a row and at least 23 points in four of his last six outings.

VanVleet ended with 26 points (10-21 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds, four assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Friday's 114-97 loss to the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

VanVleet posted at least 20 points for the third game in a row and continues to be one of the Raptors' main scoring threats on a nightly basis. He's averaging 21.3 points, 6.3 assists and 4.9 rebounds per game through 12 games this month.
