Availability
The Raptors signed A.J. Lawson to a two-way contract.
Fantasy Impact
Lawson returns to Toronto on a new deal after he was just waived. He'll remain in the G-League with the team.
AJ Lawson notched 12 points (3-of-10 FG), 10 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one three-pointer in Friday’s game against Dallas, fresh off signing a contract extension with Toronto through the 2025-26 season earlier that day.
Fantasy Impact
Lawson marked his new deal with a second career double-double—his first since a month prior—playing a key bench role, likely to continue in Sunday’s season finale in San Antonio. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues can note his multi-category contribution, but his limited long-term value caps his appeal heading into next year.
A.J. Lawson scored 13 points (6-8 FG, 1-2 3P, 0-1 FT) with three rebounds, four assists, and two steals in the Raptors' 112-103 loss to the Blazers on Thursday.
Fantasy Impact
Lawson now has back-to-back games with 13 points. He got some extended runs over the last couple of games with various Raptors ahead of him sitting out each game, so don't expect this to be a new thing going into next year, with Lawson being heavy in the rotation.
A.J. Lawson scored 28 points (10-20 FG, 4-9 3PT, 4-6 FT) to go along with six rebounds and four assists in the Raptors 118-105 win over the 76ers.
Fantasy Impact
Lawson has now combined for 60 points in past two games. His value will continue to primarily come as a scorer the rest of the season.
AJ Lawson tallied 32 points (9-of-21 FG), 12 rebounds, one steal, and seven three-pointers in Monday’s game against Washington.
Fantasy Impact
Lawson, still on a two-way deal, exploded for a season-high 32 points—fueled by seven triples—while logging 26-plus minutes for the fourth straight game, adding a double-double with 12 boards. The scoring outburst might not hold, but his rising playing time signals a path to relevance for fantasy managers in deeper leagues. Keep an eye on his minutes for sustained value beyond this hot night.
