VanVleet finished with 12 points ( 2-10 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six boards and seven assists in 41 minutes of a 115-105 loss to Milwaukee on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet set a season-high in rebounds in the game, but struggled offensively making just 20 percent from the field. He did play at least 40 minutes for the third time this season, and once again limited his turnovers in the contest. He'll get another chance to rebound from his rough shooting night when Toronto takes on the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday.

VanVleet amassed 13 points (5-9 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 11 assists, one rebound, and one steal in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 125-113 win over the Pistons.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet continues to fit well next to fellow backcourt mate Kyle Lowry. While VanVleet's field goal percentage typically leaves a lot to be desired, he was efficient in this one and continues to provide by far his best production across just about every category.

VanVleet had 14 points (3-14 FG, 1-7 3PT, 7-7 FT), six assists, five rebounds and two steals during the Raptors' 104-95 win over the Magic on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet has been handling the playmaking duties alongside Kyle Lowry and has at least six assists in every single game of the season, while scoring double-digit points in three of four contests. While his 34-point performance in the season opener should be considered as an anomaly rather than the norm going forward, the 25-year-old guard should be good enough for decent scoring total even if his shooting percentages won't be very high. The Raptors play the Pistons on Wednesday.

VanVleet had eight points (2-11 FG, 2-5 3PT, 2-2 FT), six assists and five rebounds in Friday's loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet came out firing with a huge game on opening night, but he followed up with a less-impressive showing Friday. While he struggled from the floor and committed four turnovers, the good news, from a fantasy perspective, is VanVleet played a team-high 42 minutes.

VanVleet delivered 34 points (12-18 FG, 5-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven assists, five rebounds, and two steals in 44 minutes during Tuesday's 130-122 overtime win against the Pelicans.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet was on fire, finishing with career highs in scoring, made field goals, and minutes. The offseason departure of Kawhi Leonard has opened the door for players such as Siakam and VanVleet to take another step forward offensively. Though VanVleet can't be expected to maintain this level of efficiency, he's likely to remain extremely aggressive going forward.

VanVleet is starting Tuesday's game against New Orleans, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
VanVleet battled with Norman Powell for a starting role throughout the preseason, and it'll be VanVleet who opens the year as the starting shooting guard. The Wichita State product averaged 11.0 points, 4.8 assists and 2.6 rebounds over 64 games a season ago with the Raptors.

VanVleet will be rested for Sunday's game against the Bulls, Steven Loung of Sportsnet reports.
EDGE Analysis
The guard will be among several Raptors sitting out Sunday, and in his absence, rookie Matt Thomas should be in line for an extended role.
