The New York Knicks and the Toronto Raptors do battle at the Scotiabank Arena on Friday night.
The New York Knicks have been in fine form as they’ve won 11 of their last 16 games overall and they will be aiming to build on their three-game win streak after sneaking past the Spurs in a 117-114 win on Wednesday. Jalen Brunson led the team with 38 points, seven rebounds and six assists, Julius Randle added 25 points with 13 rebounds and four blocks while Immanuel Quickley chipped in with 15 points, eight rebounds and five assists. As a team, the Knicks shot 47 percent from the field and 10 of 31 from the 3-point line as they jumped out of the gates with 39 points in the first quarter to take the early lead, but they found themselves in a real dog fight and had to close the final 4:10 on a 10-5 run to escape with the narrow win in the end.
Meanwhile, the Toronto Raptors have been in a real funk as they’ve lost 10 of their last 13 games overall and they will be hoping to snap a two-game skid after falling short to the Bucks in a 104-101 overtime loss on Wednesday. Fred VanVleet led the team with 28 points and 12 assists, Gary Trent Jr added 22 points while Scottie Barnes chipped in with 19 points. As a team, the Raptors shot just 32 percent from the field and nine of 46 from the 3-point line as they exploded for 38 points in the fourth quarter to rally back from an early 21-point deficit, only to go ice-cold in overtime where they managed just four points to allow the Bucks off the hook in the end.
