Game Thread: Toronto Raptors @ Dallas Mavericks

It was disappointing to hear the news before tonight’s Raptors vs. Mavericks regarding the relative health of Jalen Harris and Yuta Watanabe. To a certain extent, there’s not much more to gain from rolling out the full Raptors squad tonight, so it would indeed be something to see the bench get a chance to play — or play more. Both were listed as doubtful this afternoon, and apparently only Harris will take the court tonight.

The Mavericks, meanwhile, are hanging onto the fifth seed and looking to avoid any further tumble. That would get them the Clippers in the first round, which proved their undoing in the Bubble last year — and would likely lead to the same conclusion here.
