The Dallas Mavericks once again fall to a shorthanded team, losing a close game to the Toronto Raptors 105-100. The Raptors were without Scottie Barnes and Pascal Siakam but knowing the Mavericks at this point have had problems underestimating opponents, we should have known the result was never in doubt.
O.G Anunoby and Fred VanVleet lead the way for the Raptors with 26 points each. Chris Boucher was a huge game-changer for the Raptors as he added 22 points and 13 rebounds in their win over Dallas. Luka Doncic had 24 points on the night to lead the way after the Mavericks but a hot start from Spencer Dinwiddie's foul trouble clearly affected his flow for the game after leaving early in the 3rd quarter with 4 fouls.
