Shead produced 19 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 0-2 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one block in 29 minutes during Monday's 107-106 win over Orlando.
EDGE Analysis
In a game when Brandon Ingram, Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley combined to score 34 points while going 14-for-46 from the field (30.4 percent), it was Shead who came to the rescue for the Raptors with a team-high 19 points off the bench, 12 of which came in the first half. It was a season high in points for Shead and just the third time he's scored in double digits. Since Dec. 2, he has averaged 8.3 points, 5.5 assists, 2.3 rebounds, 1.5 threes and 1.1 steals over 23.8 minutes per game.

Shead supplied eight points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight assists and one steal across 29 minutes during Sunday's 141-127 overtime win over the Warriors.
EDGE Analysis
Shead's playmaking continues to be solid, but the rest of his game leaves a lot to be desired in terms of fantasy hoops. Over his last seven appearances, he's shooting 32.7 percent from the field with averages of 6.6 points, 6.1 assists, 1.7 rebounds and 1.4 three-pointers in 22.6 minutes per contest.

Shead is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Heat.
EDGE Analysis
Shead should see regular minutes off the bench in this game, but he'll move to the second unit due to Immanuel Quickley (illness) returning to the starting lineup. Shead is averaging 5.8 points, 1.8 rebounds and 5.1 assists per game when coming off the bench this season.

Shead accumulated 18 points (6-15 FG, 4-11 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, eight assists and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 117-101 loss to New York.
EDGE Analysis
Shead replaced Immanuel Quickley (illness) in the starting lineup, dropping a career-high 18 points in the process. After a slow start to the season, Shead has at least put himself on the standard league radar of late, averaging 10.0 points, 4.5 assists, 1.8 steals and 1.5 three-pointers in 24.7 minutes per game across four games over the past week. He would need Quickley to miss additional time to have any real chance of putting up value, although Shead could be utilized for streaming purposes at a pinch.

Shead is in the Raptors' starting lineup for Tuesday's NBA Cup quarterfinals matchup against the Knicks, Esfandiar Baraheni of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shead will make his first start of the regular season Tuesday due to the absence of Immanuel Quickley (illness). Shead has opened the 2025-26 regular season averaging 5.8 points, 5.1 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.2 steals over 19.3 minutes per game.

Shead (quadriceps) is available for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Vivek Jacob of the Raptors' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shead is overcoming a questionable tag with a right quadriceps contusion Tuesday. With Immanuel Quickley unable to play due to an illness, it looks like the minutes at point guard will be divvied up among Shead and Ja'Kobe Walter. Shead has averaged 5.7 points, 5.1 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.6 steals in 20.7 minutes per contest over his last 16 games.

Shead (quadriceps) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.
EDGE Analysis
Shead is dealing with a right quadriceps contusion and could miss Tuesday's NBA Cup quarterfinals matchup. If the second-year point guard is ultimately ruled out, A.J. Lawson and Ja'Kobe Walter could see increased playing time. Shead continues to see consistent run for Toronto, averaging 5.4 points, 4.0 assists, 3.0 steals and 2.4 rebounds across 20.8 minutes per game over his last five outings. However, he has shot just 27.0 percent from the field and 14.3 percent from downtown during that span.

Shead had nine points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and two steals across 22 minutes during Sunday's 121-113 loss to the Celtics.
EDGE Analysis
Shead hasn't scored in double digits since Nov. 23 and is shooting just 27.5 percent from the field and 17.4 percent from three in that span. However, he remains committed to playmaking and staying engaged on the defensive end, averaging 4.0 assists and 2.1 steals in that span as well. Shead will continue to back up Immanuel Quickley and will likely remain a steady source of assists and steals for fantasy managers.

Shead notched three points (1-6 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 23 minutes during Saturday's 118-111 overtime loss to Charlotte.
EDGE Analysis
Shead has been unable to find any rhythm thus far this season, a trend that continued Saturday. He has scored double digits only twice through the first 20 games, averaging 6.0 points to go with 5.4 assists and 1.0 three-pointers in 18.8 minutes per contest.

Shead finished Sunday's 119-109 win over Brooklyn with 11 points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 9-11 FT), nine assists, one rebound and one steal over 24 minutes.
EDGE Analysis
Shead struggled with his limited shots from the field but more than made up for it at the charity stripe with a game-high nine made free throws. He also led both teams with nine dimes and finished just one assist shy from registering the second double-double of his career. Shead has played a consistent role off the bench this season, though he and other Raptors reserve players will need to take on increased responsibilities if RJ Barrett were to miss time due to a right knee sprain that he sustained during the third quarter of Sunday's game.
