Haven't heard nor read anything since it was announced he was out.

I am actually concerned now. Sure want to be wrong and completely overreacting.

anyone see Khem and him last night on the bench ? Khem was towering over him lol.

Either Barnes really is 6’7/8 or Khem is 6’10

Appreciate he’s probable now. Hopefully not another case of Raptors lying about injury status

Could be back soon

Good news. They just announced he's probable for tomorrow.

Seems like it was pretty minor, he looked pretty healthy on the bench last night tbh.

I assume he is 6-8 and Khem 6-10

If I were to guess, Barnes is growing and playing more mins and games than he’s ever had to in his life so he probably does have a sore knee but if it were a more important game that they felt they needed him to win he would have played. Probably opportunistic load management.

This is what was going on with JJJ in Memphis.

He was (is?) still growing and it was impacting his knees.

Selfishly, I want to see the Raptors run the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air pass the ball to Will play at all times...but the reality is Scottie Barnes is somewhat still a child and still growing. If the medical staff sees fit that he be rested, so be it.

We figured Scottie would be better defensively, but nobody could've predicted that he would be light years ahead of Suggs offensively.

These are things that only real scouts have a better handle on compared to goofs like us on a message board.

Can’t make that deduction from this chart, Scottie guards the best player on opposing team on a nightly basis — that is not accounted for in this.

Go Scottie Go.

I actually feel bad for Jalen Green, having to develop with the Rockets. I'm a fan of coach Silas, but roster construction (too many guards of Green's profile), constant losing and the personalities that they've collected have made for a challenging environment for the kid.

I've watched a couple of his games, he's insanely talented offensively. Completely lost on D but room for improvement.
