Raptors' Brandon Ingram: Needs 12 shots for 11 points
Ingram closed with 11 points (4-12 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 victory over the Mavericks.
Ingram played through a stomach bug Sunday, which may have impacted his performance as he struggled to get his shot to fall. Immanuel Quickley also had a tough time finding his rhythm, as he went 4-for-14 from the floor for 10 points, two rebounds, eight assists, three steals and one turnover in 31 minutes.

Raptors' Scottie Barnes: Scores 17 points with five dimes
Barnes amassed 17 points (6-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal in 35 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 victory over Dallas.
Barnes did a nice job putting the clamps on Cooper Flagg, helping hold Dallas' star rookie to just 17 points on 7-for-17 shooting. Barnes finished with a team-best plus-25 differential in the blowout win, and as a bonus for 9-cat managers, he only committed one turnover in his 35 minutes of floor time.

Marvin Bagley III C | DEN
Mavericks' Marvin Bagley: Logs 20 minutes in return
Bagley (neck) produced six points (2-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and two assists across 20 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 loss to the Raptors.
Bagley made his return to action following a five-game absence due to a neck sprain, stepping back into his usual role as the Mavericks' top backup center. So long as Daniel Gafford is available for Dallas, Bagley may have difficulty reaching the 25-minute mark in most games, which makes it tough to rely on the big man outside of deeper leagues as anything more than a streaming option for rebounds and field-goal percentage.

Daniel Gafford C | DAL
Mavericks' Daniel Gafford: Scores 21 points without missing
Gafford accumulated 21 points (10-10 FG, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one block in 23 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 loss to the Raptors.
This was Gafford's second straight double-double and his eighth of the season. He set a new season high in points and did so without missing a single shot, but the result was yet another loss for the Mavericks. Dallas has now lost seven straight and dropped 17 of its past 19 games overall.

Cooper Flagg SF | DAL
Mavericks' Cooper Flagg: Nets 17 points with full line
Flagg finished with 17 points (7-17 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds, six assists, three blocks and two steals in 30 minutes during Sunday's 122-92 loss to Toronto.
Flagg was terrific on the defensive end, helping hold Brandon Ingram to just 11 points on 4-for-12 shooting, and this was Flagg's fifth game of the season with multiple steals and blocks. He has been struggling with his shot over the past three games while converting just 33.9 percent of his field-goal attempts, but the rookie will have a chance to snap out of his funk Tuesday with a favorable matchup against the Hawks.

Suns' Grayson Allen: Won't play Sunday

Collin Murray-Boyles PF | TOR
Raptors' Collin Murray-Boyles: Ruled out for road trip
Murray-Boyles (thumb) will miss the Raptors' upcoming two-game road trip to Houston and New Orleans, Michael Grange of Sportsnet.ca reports.
The Raptors want to give Murray-Boyles some extended time off to help the swelling in his sprained thumb go down, so the rookie won't be available until Friday versus Phoenix at the earliest. Jakob Poeltl and Sandro Mamukelashvili will hold down the fort at center while Murray-Boyles is out.

Trayce Jackson-Davis C | TOR
Raptors' Trayce Jackson-Davis: Out for Tuesday
Jackson-Davis (finger) is listed out for Tuesday's game against the Rockets.
Jackson-Davis dislocated his right middle finger during pregame warmups prior to Sunday's 122-92 win over the Mavericks and will now miss his second straight game. Even when healthy, Jackson-Davis has typically been outside of the Toronto rotation.

Scoot Henderson SG | POR
Trail Blazers' Scoot Henderson: Won't start Sunday
Henderson won't start Sunday's game against the Pacers.
With Deni Avdija (back) returning to action, Henderson will slide to the second unit. Over nine appearances off the bench this season, the 22-year-old point guard has averaged 12.9 points, 4.8 assists and 3.1 rebounds in 23.0 minutes per contest.

Collin Sexton SG | LAL
Bulls' Collin Sexton: Coming off bench Sunday
Sexton will come off the bench during Sunday's game against the Kings, Frankie Cartoscelli of KHTK Sactown Sports 1140 reports.
Sexton started Thursday's game due to Josh Giddey (ankle) being out of the lineup, but he will return to a bench role Sunday as Giddey returns to action. Sexton has scored in double figures in five straight games, including three straight tallies of 20-plus points.
