Barnes finished Wednesday's 122-109 win over the Kings with 23 points (8-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 6-6 FT), eight rebounds, seven assists, one block and four steals over 32 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes contributed in multiple categories in Wednesday's win over the Kings, tying for the team lead with 23 points and matching his season high of four steals. The 24-year-old forward is in the midst of one of the best five-game stretches of his career, averaging 24.2 points, 8.0 assists, 7.6 rebounds and 1.6 steals on 52.7 percent shooting from the field across a league-high 37 minutes per game during that span.

Barnes finished Tuesday's 145-127 victory over the Warriors with 26 points (12-18 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and 11 assists over 39 minutes.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes made plays all over the court and contained the Warriors' interior alongside Sandro Mamukelashvili, who also recorded a double-double in the win. Barnes has hit the double-double milestone 17 times this season, but it's only the second time getting there via his assist total. The standout 24-year-old forward also has two triple-doubles to his credit.

Barnes supplied 22 points (10-21 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal across 35 minutes during Sunday's 110-93 loss to the Lakers.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes was one rebound shy of a double-double in the loss, and he played reasonably well while battling with LeBron James for most of the game. He faded a bit down the stretch after a red-hot start during a 12-2 Toronto run in the first quarter, but he finished as the team's high scorer regardless. His scoring total marked his third consecutive game with 20-plus points, and his fourth in five games.

Barnes closed with 24 points (9-21 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, one block and one steal across 41 minutes in Friday's 121-117 overtime loss to the Clippers.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes led the Raptors in scoring but ultimately came up short in an overtime loss. Perimeter shooting remains a secondary part of his game at just 3.3 three-point attempts per contest this season, yet going without a make from deep in five of the past seven games underscores how even modest improvement -- he's shooting 32.6 percent from beyond the arc on the year -- could raise his overall impact.

Barnes racked up 26 points (10-16 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 5-9 FT), 13 assists, seven rebounds, two steals and one block over 38 minutes during Wednesday's 115-101 win over the Pacers.

EDGE Analysis

This was a nice bounce-back performance from Barnes, who was held to just 15 points on 5-for-16 shooting his last time out. This was Barnes' 11th game of the season with multiple steals, and he's had at least one steal and one block in all but seven games during his 2025-26 campaign.

Barnes posted 31 points (10-19 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 10-12 FT), seven assists and six rebounds over 43 minutes during the Raptors' 116-115 overtime win over the 76ers on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes served as the focal point of the Raptors' offense Sunday due to the absences of RJ Barrett (ankle) and Brandon Ingram (thumb), and Barnes finished as the game's second-leading scorer behind Tyrese Maxey (38 points). Barnes' 10th made free throw with 0.8 seconds left in overtime put the Raptors up for good, and he deliberately missed the second attempt to let the clock expire. The Raptors and 76ers will do it all again in Monday's rematch in Toronto.

Barnes (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes was held out of Friday's loss to the Celtics but will shed his questionable tag Sunday due to a right knee sprain. The Raptors will likely rely heavily on the star forward in the front end of this back-to-back set against Philadelphia, as RJ Barrett (ankle), Brandon Ingram (thumb) and Jakob Poeltl (back) have all been ruled out. Over his last five games, Barnes has averaged 17.6 points, 8.8 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks across 33.6 minutes per contest.

Barnes (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes missed the Raptors' loss to the Celtics on Friday, but the questionable tag suggests the star forward might have a shot at returning to action Sunday. Barnes is having another strong year with averages of 19.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, 5.2 assists and a combined 1.8 steals-plus-blocks per game in 38 starts. If he's out Sunday, then Collin Murray-Boyles and Jamison Battle would be in line to see more minutes at the four.

Branes (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game in Boston, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Brandon Ingram (thumb) will join Barnes on the sidelines Friday night, so Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett figure to see a massive uptick in usage, and there will be a ton of minutes available for guys like Gradey Dick, Ochai Agbaji and Collin Murray-Boyles. Barnes' next chance to play will come Sunday versus the 76ers, but that game will be the first of a back-to-back set.

Barnes (knee) has been downgraded to doubtful for Friday's game versus Boston, Josh Lewenberg of TSN.ca reports.

EDGE Analysis

Barnes was previously listed as questionable, but he was not seen at the morning shootaround. He's dealing with a knee sprain he suffered Wednesday against the Hornets, and it looks like the Raptors will err on the side of caution. Brandon Ingram (thumb) remains questionable, so players like Gradey Dick and Ochai Agbaji may be asked to step up.
