The Athletic's Esfandiar Baraheni reports that RJ Barrett (knee) will be re-evaluated in a week.Barrett sustained a right knee sprain in Sunday's win over Brooklyn before sitting out Monday's win over Cleveland. His timeline means Barrett will miss at least four games, though he could be forced to sit out additional games beyond that, depending on his recovery. Ja'Kobe Walter started on Monday, though he did little with his 24 minutes. Jamal Shead logged 24 minutes off the bench, and he should see an uptick in playing time for as long as Barrett is out. Gradey Dick may be more involved, too, so fantasy managers don't have a clear pickup here.
