10 in a Row for Toronto
The Toronto Raptors have not won a game since March 3rd when they beat the Charlotte Hornets. Since that win, they have dropped 10 in a row, and allowed 111 or more in each of those games. Toronto now is 25th in the league, allowing just shy of 120 points per game.
The offense has been a big time struggle as well, but that’s mostly due to injuries. Scottie Barnes has been out since March 1st, RJ Barrett has not played since March 11th, and Immanuel Quickly has not played since March 17th. The Raptors got 31 points from Gary Trent in their loss at Washington. That was the second time he scored 31 in a game over the last 10 days.
Toronto is at home against the Knicks on Wednesday and 76ers on Sunday. In April, the Raptors are set to host the Lakers on the 2nd, before going on the road for back to back games.
