Coming off of a fairly resounding win in the return of Fred VanVleet against the San Antonio Spurs, the Toronto Raptors stare down the barrel of two extremely tough West coast opponents in a back-to-back. The first leg comes tonight against the team with the NBA’s best-record, the Phoenix Suns.
Though Phoenix will be without Chris Paul and Cam Johnson, and have been battling myriad of injuries on their own, they have already secured a playoff spot. Without those two players, the Suns still have a bevvy of skilled players on both sides of the ball and will absolutely challenge the Raptors.
