Fantasy Impact:

Birch’s minutes have been on the decline of late as the team traded for Wendell Carter Jr. and also wants to give Mo Bamba more opportunities as the backup center. Birch will sign with the Raptors when he clears waivers, and he’ll likely carve out a nice role on a team starving for some big man minutes alongside Aron Baynes and Chris Boucher. This move opens up more minutes for Bamba, who becomes a nice speculative pickup in season-long leagues heading into the fantasy basketball playoffs.
