Dalano Banton Won't Play On Saturday
Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus Atlanta. Banton dropped 27 points on the Pistons on Monday night, so he was rewarded with another start in the team's previous matchup against the Heat. However, he injured his left ankle in the third quarter and didn't return. The Raptors are dealing with plenty of absences heading into the bout with the Hawks, with Pascal Siakam (adductor), Otto Porter Jr. (foot), Gary Trent Jr. (hip), Precious Achiuwa (ankle), and Chris Boucher (illness) also ruled out. As a result, Fred VanVleet, Scottie Barnes, and OG Anunoby should lead the way offensively. Yet, DFS managers may get some value from guys like Thaddeus Young, Malachi Flynn, and Juancho Hernangomez.
