It was a tale of two halves as the short-handed Toronto Raptors tried but couldn’t keep up with the Philadelphia 76ers. We break down the game with our player grades.
Danny Green and Kyle Lowry returned to the lineup tonight, but it wasn’t enough as the Toronto Raptors got demolished 126-101 by the Philadelphia 76ers in the Wells Fargo Center. Toronto was without Kawhi Leonard, Jonas Valanciunas, and Serge Ibaka.
Early in the game, Toronto battled Philadelphia close. The teams exchanged baskets with Pascal Siakam leading the charge for the dinos while Joel Embiid pounded the paint and exploited the Raptors’ lack of interior defence.
