When the Toronto Raptors left on their West Coast road trip, they knew they had some tough competition ahead — BUT so far they’ve won against two of the TOUGHEST teams in the NBA. After hard fought games against the Phoenix Suns and the Denver Nuggets, the Raptors’ spirits should be high.
Now they are in sunny Los Angeles to face the Lakers tonight, where LeBron James and his squad have struggled to keep up this season. They currently sit in 9th in the West with a record of 29-37, putting them in a place where they will likely be in the play-in come post season.
