Serge Ibaka forgets to participate in Raptors close win

Serge Ibaka
PF/C, Toronto Raptors

Serge Ibaka was invisible on Wednesday with just three points and two rebounds.

Ibaka finally matched his Game 1 output of 23 points. Unfortunately for him, those 23 points have come across the last four games combined. He really hasn't been a consistently productive player or a couple seasons now and if the Raptors are counting on him to be great, they have bigger problems.

Kawhi Leonard
SF, Los Angeles Clippers

Kawhi Leonard (load management) will not play on Saturday against the Blazers.

The Clippers have a back-to-back this weekend so it was assumed Kawhi would sit out one of those games as he has been doing all season. The reigning NBA Finals MVP should be good to go against the Nets on Sunday.while Landry Shamet and Marcus Morris may be asked to take on a bigger role offensively on Saturday.

Jonathan Isaac
PF, Orlando Magic

Jonathan Isaac had successful surgery on Friday to repair a torn left ACL and meniscus.

The meniscus tear not was initially reported and although these usually require a 4-to-6 week recovery, the ACL tear is the big one and may force him to miss the entirety of next season. At 22 years old, he finished the season with cash-counting stat averages of 2.3 blocks, 1.6 steals and 0.9 triples. We wish him a speedy recovery.

Kyle Lowry
PG, Toronto Raptors

Kyle Lowry managed just 11 points (3-of-6 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs) on Friday, sounding off the bells of Doom as the Celtics came away with the statement win.

Lowry's had back-to-back sub-par games now, scoring just eight points on Wednesday. Still, the Raptors' guard finds a way to contribute in other areas, like the two rebounds, two assists, three steals and one block he netted tonight. Still, it's a low-end line and it's a disappointment, but owners will just have to gut it out until he blows up for a monster line once again.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson
SF, Toronto Raptors

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson got a bit of extra run on Friday thanks to the blow-out nature of the Raptors' loss to the Celtics and was able to chip-in 11 points on 5-of-6 shooting, plus three rebounds, five dimes and two steals.

As mentioned, RHJ was only able to get some extra burn due to the Celtics' masterful domination of the game. He's not worth adding, so leave him on the wire.

Pascal Siakam
PF, Toronto Raptors

Pascal Siakam was ice-cold on Friday, hitting just 5-of-15 shots from the field for 11 points, adding two rebounds, one 3-pointer and one steal in 28 minutes.

Ouch. Siakam had a team-worst minus-26 in the +/- column and dealt with foul trouble as well in spots. This was a forgettable performance by Spicy P, but what fantasy owners should not forget is that he's a top-30 talent and this poor showing is just another bump in the road to fantasy greatness.
