To say that the Toronto Raptors West Coast road trip had been something of a success, so far, would be disingenuous. It would also be a little hard to really evaluate since the Raptors are currently missing Kyle Lowry, Serge Ibaka, and OG Anunoby – three key components to the team’s winning formula.
However, following the Raptors 114-106 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers, Nick Nurse’s men now improve their record to 3-1 on the trip out west and 8-3 overall for the season. That, if we’re being honest, is impressive given the circumstances.
