After a successful five-game road trip that started in Cleveland and ended in London, the Toronto Raptors return to the friendly confines of the Air Canada Centre to kick off a seven-game homestand against the Brooklyn Nets.

Brooklyn fired head coach Lionel Hollins last week and has shaken up its front office. Not much has changed as the team has dropped five of its past six.
