All-star guard Kyle Lowry had 21 points to lead the Raptors to a 112-94 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday night for Toronto’s eighth win in a row.
DeMar DeRozan, who hopes to join Lowry at the all-star game, scored 18 points as the Raptors (29-15) shook off a slow start in the first quarter. Lowry added six assists, while Jonas Valanciunas had 20 points and eight rebounds despite early foul trouble.
It is Toronto’s longest winning streak under head coach Dwane Casey and the franchise’s longest run of victories since a nine-game stretch in 2002.
