Game Centre: Raptors tame Timberwolves, remain unbeaten

These are verging on history-making times for the Toronto Raptors.

It was Toronto’s fifth straight win to open the NBA season, equalling the franchise record established in 2015-16. It was also their fourth win at home to start a season; the team record in that category is five and can be matched on Friday night.
