What to look for in the Cavaliers vs. Raptors game on November 24
The Cavaliers and Raptors already have faced each other twice this season, and in both of their previous meetings — each played in Cleveland — the Raptors came out on top. Toronto took down Cleveland by a 112-101 final score in the two teams’ first contest on Halloween night, and repeated the feat again on November 13, winning a 126-113 contest on the road.
Monday’s game on Peacock serves up a chance for Toronto to keep the momentum going — only this time in front of a friendly home crowd. Cavs guard Donovan Mitchell threw down 31 points in the two teams’ most recent showdown on November 13, though it wasn’t enough to keep pace with a near triple-double performance from Raptors forward Scottie Barnes, who scored 28 points while snagging 10 rebounds and lining up eight assists in the win.
Monday’s Cavs vs. Raptors contest is the first of two back-to-back NBA doubleheader games on Peacock NBA Monday slated for November 24. After the early Eastern Conference action between Cleveland and Toronto, the focus shifts west for a 9:30 p.m. ET matchup between the red-hot Houston Rockets and the Phoenix Suns.
