2025 Fantasy Outlook
Better suited for points leagues, Barrett has finished inside the top 150 in eight-category leagues only once in six years. The only time he reached that plateau was during his sophomore campaign with the Knicks in 2020-21, when he made 72 regular-season appearances and shot a career-high 40.1 percent from deep. The lack of production in category leagues is due to missed time (58 regular-season appearances in each of the last two seasons), lackluster defense (career-high 1.3 stocks as a rookie) and poor shooting percentages. He appears to have turned a corner in the efficiency department since joining the Raptors. After a mid-season trade to Toronto in 2023-24, Barrett went from shooting 42.3 percent with the Knicks through 26 games to 55.3 percent in 32 games with the Raptors. He wasn't able to replicate that during a full season, but his 46.8 percent mark last year was nearly three points higher than his best finish in New York. However, the real concern is Barrett's work from the charity stripe. Since joining Toronto, he's shot 63 percent. That was never the strongest part of his game, but he shot over 71 percent in each of his final three full seasons with the Knicks and was shooting 83.1 percent before the trade. Barrett wasn't the only Raptor to miss time in 2024-25, as Immanuel Quickley and Scottie Barnes also missed large chunks of the season due to injuries, plus Brandon Ingram, who was acquired at the trade deadline and given an extension, never made his debut. That allowed Barrett to handle more playmaking duties, and he finished with a career-high 5.4 assists per game. While his starting spot is secure to begin the campaign, there'll be plenty of mouths to feed in Toronto when everyone is healthy, and if Barrett's efficiency slips again, he may be the odd man out at the top in terms of usage.

Signed a four-year, $107 million contract extension with the Knicks in September of 2022. Traded to the Raptors in December of 2023. 
Scores 19 points in preseason debut
Barrett totaled 19 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 FT, 3-6 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and a steal across 21 minutes during Monday's 112-108 preseason loss to the Nuggets.
ANALYSIS
Despite the loss, Toronto's first unit buzzed with offensive production. The combo of Barrett, Immanuel Quickley, Brandon Ingram and Scottie Barnes were in regular-season form, and they'll be even more potent once Jakob Poeltl is back in action. Barrett suffered through some injuries last season, but he still sported career-high averages of 21.1 points, 6.3 rebounds and 5.4 assists over 58 games.

Despite finishing just inside the top 200 in standard fantasy formats, Barrett managed to increase his numbers across the board during the 2023-24 season. A mid-season move to Toronto seemed to revitalize Barrett, providing him with an opportunity to take on more of a leadership role both on and off the court. He finished the season by scoring at least 25 points in four of his final six games, albeit six games interrupted by a leave of absence due to personal reasons. He finished with averages of 20.2 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.3 assists and 1.6 three-pointers, all serviceable numbers. However, his efficiency took the biggest steps, shooting a career-best 49.5 percent from the field. Given his previous best was 44.1 percent during his sophomore season, managers may want to pause before assuming that he will repeat that performance this season. With that said, his role in Toronto figures to be significant, making him someone to consider towards the end of drafts. If you can stomach his poor free-throw shooting and lack of defensive stats, there could be some meat on the bone moving forward.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Feels strong heading into 2025-26
Barrett is feeling healthy and refreshed ahead of the 2025-26 regular season, stating that had time to reset over the offseason, Josh Lewenberg of TSN reports.
ANALYSIS
Barrett would be one of the first to admit that his large contract has weighed on him in recent years, and he's still owed $27.7 million and $29.6 million over the next two seasons. However, he made good use of his time off over the summer. "It was weird at first and it took some time, but throughout the course of the summer I was able to get there and now I feel good," said Barrett. "I feel balanced. I'm excited, I'm really excited to get into this season." The Toronto coaching staff has also taken note of Barrett's renewed energy to begin training camp. "I think he's strong," said head coach Darko Rajakovic. "I think he's in elite shape. He did not play for Canada Basketball this summer, which gave him more time to work on his game and his body. I think he's in a great place, to be honest with you, and I think he's going to have a great season."
