It has been a rough stretch offensively for Barnes. but after getting two games off to nurse his right hand injury, he was able to have some success on Friday. He had his highest-scoring performance since March 20 despite his abysmal night from the free throw line. It’s unclear if Barnes will be available for Toronto’s season finale in San Antonio on Sunday since they are locked in to the seventh-best lottery odds. If this was Barnes’ final game of the season, he was able to end a rough year on a high note.

The undrafted rookie wrapped up his first season in the NBA on a high note. Battle set new career highs for both points and three-pointers and became the 48th rookie in league history to hit seven triples in one game. He is the fourth rookie this season to reach that mark, with Bub Carrington, Dalton Knecht and Jaylen Wells also doing it. Battle has played well as part of Toronto’s rotation over the past month, but there likely won’t be minutes for him with the Raptors to start next season.

He didn’t do enough scoring to reach a triple-double, but Mogbo became the seventh player this season to record a rebound-assist double-double. It was a solid way to end his rookie season and cap off a four-game stretch where he averaged 12.8 points, 10.8 rebounds, nine assists, 2.5 steals and one block per game. The second-round pick has showcased a ton of upside in year one, but it’s unclear how he’ll fit into the rotation next season when the rest of the team is healthy. Still, when he gets the opportunity to play, he should be an effective, well-rounded fantasy option.

In what has been a disappointing season for both Barnes and the Raptors, he was able to close the season out on a high note. He finishes his fourth season in the NBA with averages of 19.3 points, 7.7 rebounds, 5.8 assists, 1.4 steals, one block and 1.2 threes per game. Toronto should be more competitive next season with Brandon Ingram and a lottery pick entering the rotation. That should help Barnes bounce back from a disappointing campaign where he shot a career-worst 44.6 percent from the floor.

After the Lakers dropped Game 1, Luka made sure they wouldn’t head out on the road for Game 3 down 0-2. He scored 22 points in the first half alone, and while he wasn’t able to replicate that dominance after the break, he was still able to do enough to even the series. Doncic fell one assist shy of a triple-double, which would have been the 11th playoff triple-double of his career. This was also Luka’s first postseason win with Los Angeles, and he’ll look to add another in Game 3 on Friday to help the Lakers take back homecourt advantage.

Previous reports indicated that Tatum would be considered “day-to-day”, so this shouldn’t be a lengthy absence for him. However, he is expected to miss this game, which will provide the Magic a chance to steal homecourt advantage. Al Horford and Sam Hauser are the likely candidates to move into the starting unit, though Payton Pritchard will certainly take one extra minutes off the bench.

Tatum took a hard fall in the fourth quarter of Game 1, and though he remained in the game, he left early after looking uncomfortable. Tatum’s status for Game 2 is a monster storyline, and if the superstar forward is not able to go, his playing time could be filled with a committee approach. Guys like Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser and Al Horford could see bumps in playing time if Tatum is sidelined.
