Fresh off a 108-94 win in bitingly-cold Milwaukee, the Warriors will face what is arguably the toughest matchup of this long road trip: the surging Toronto Raptors.
While the #1 team in the West facing the #2 team in the East is always going to be a marquee matchup, both Stephen Curry and Kyle Lowry are likely to miss this game for their respective teams - robbing the game of some of it’s entertainment value, but none of it’s importance.
Just for some pre-excuses perspective, the Warriors will be playing their third game in four days (and fifth game in eight) less than 24 hours after finishing off the Bucks.
