The Toronto Raptors will need more than one win to climb out of The Hole That Covid Dug, but grabbing a victory to snap a seven-game losing streak would feel pretty great nonetheless.
As they arrive at Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse tonight, the opportunity is there. Along with a matchup with the bottom-dwelling Rockets tomorrow, seeing 13th place Cleveland (15-26) should leave the Raptors (17-24) salivating — especially before a rough three-game “home” stand against the Nuggets, Suns and Blazers to round out the week.
The team is all systems go. After OG Anunoby’s return against Utah, the injury report is crystal clear for Toronto.
