Ah, another championship contending team is in Toronto tonight, great. Today it was the Dallas Mavericks and their big three of Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, and Klay Thompson.
Yeah, big yikes going up against that talent no matter who is on our squad, but the Toronto Raptors did have something going for them — a shorter injury list! It was the first game all season that Kelly Olynyk was available to play this season, as he has been recovering from a lumbar injury in his back. Jakob Poeltl was also back in the lineup tonight after missing the team’s last game due to an illness.
