Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Working on jumper
Agbaji (lower leg) was seen with coach Darko Rajakovic working on his hand placement for his jump shot, Esfandiar Baraheni of Forbes.com reports.
Agbaji struggled mightily with his outside shot in 2023-24, converting just 29.4 percent of his 2.7 three-point attempts per contest. If the 24-year-old forward can become a more reliable shooter, he should receive increased playing time in Toronto's forward rotation.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Starting in regular-season finale
Agbaji is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against Miami, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Agbaji gets the nod with the first unit due to RJ Barrett (knee) being sidelined. Agbaji has boom appeal as a volume shooter, giving him streaming credibility in Toronto's 82nd game.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Moves to bench
Agbaji isn't starting Friday's game against the Heat.
The Raptors have elected to shake up the starting five, rolling with Gary Trent at shooting guard and Gradey Dick at small forward. Agbaji will come off the bench as a result but should still play a big role in the rotation.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Grabs eight boards in return
Agbaji (hip) tallied three points (1-2 FG, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal across 35 minutes Friday in the Raptors' 117-111 win over the Bucks.
In his return from a three-game absence due to a right hip contusion, Agbaji took back a spot in the starting five from Gradey Dick and didn't face any restrictions with his playing time. However, with Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett both recently returning from multi-game absences due to personal matters, there were few touches to go around for Agbaji, who finished with a team-low 8.4 percent usage rate on the night. Agbaji will likely have a tough time turning in fantasy friendly lines while the Raptors have at least a couple of their regular starters available.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Questionable for Friday
Agbaji (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Bucks, Aaron Rose of SI.com reports.
Agbaji has missed the past three games for Toronto, but this is the first time he's received the questionable tag since going down, which indicates progress. We'll have a better idea on his status based on his activity level at Friday's shootaround, but if he is able to get back to the floor, there will be fewer minutes available for Gradey Dick and Jordan Nwora.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Won't play Sunday
Agbaji (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 76ers, Eric Koreen of The Athletic reports.
Agbaji suffered a right hip contusion Wednesday against the Knicks and underwent medical testing that came back clean. However, he's still sore and will be forced to miss at least one game.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Leaves early with hip contusion
Agbaji won't return to Wednesday's game against the Knicks due to a right hip contusion, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Agbaji missed his only field-goal attempt and recorded one rebound and one assist while playing just five minutes before exiting the contest. The second-year player made his 13th straight start Wednesday and had averaged 28.3 minutes over his previous 12 outings, but he could be in store for a reduction in playing time in the Raptors' next game Sunday against the 76ers if the hip injury doesn't keep him out. Toronto could get two major cogs in the rotation in RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley back Sunday from multi-game absences due to personal matters after both rejoined the team for practice Tuesday before being ruled out Wednesday for conditioning purposes.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Registers three steals vs. Thunder
Agbaji closed Friday's 123-103 loss to the Thunder with 12 points (4-10 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, six assists and three steals over 32 minutes.
Agbaji recorded three steals and scored in double-digits for the second straight time during Friday's contest. He's started in each of his last 10 games with All-Star forward Scottie Barnes (hand) sidelined. Agbaji has provided steady output as of late, and he has averaged 10.5 points on 43.6 percent shooting, 5.3 rebounds, 2.0 assists and 1.5 steals over 31.7 minutes per game over his last four starts.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Scores in double digits in loss
Agbaji closed Wednesday's 123-89 loss to Sacramento with 13 points (5-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), three rebounds, one assist and three steals across 30 minutes.
The Raptors looked completely overmatched against the playoff-bound Kings, but Agbaji at least posted a decent stat line, and he scored in double digits for the first time since March 3, when he also recorded 13 points in a win over the Hornets. Agbaji has been starting regularly in recent weeks, but he hasn't done much to become a reliable fantasy asset. He's averaging 6.6 points and 3.5 rebounds while logging 25.5 minutes per game since the beginning of March.

Raptors' Ochai Agbaji: Notches nine points
Agbaji ended with nine points (4-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), seven rebounds and one assist in 31 minutes during Sunday's 111-96 loss to the Magic.
Agbaji continues to log heavy minutes for the Raptors, but his production from a fantasy perspective has left a lot to be desired. In nine March appearances, Agbaji has averaged 5.9 points, 3.6 rebounds, 0.9 assists and 0.4 three-pointers while shooting 33.3 percent from the field. Sunday's performance was a step in the right direction, but his fantasy ceiling remains limited even with Toronto shorthanded.
