It’s rare that a game being played in November has any stakes, but this game tonight against the Toronto Raptors will be one they think about for the rest of the season if they don’t come up with a win.
The Raptors are set to face the Cavaliers for the final time this season tonight. The two have played twice this season and Cleveland was given homecourt priority. The Cavaliers suffered two losses at home to Scottie Barnes and the Toronto Raptors.
It’s important to note that Darius Garland didn’t play in both previous meetings against Toronto and Donovan Mitchell missed one of those games as well.
With the past likely already behind head coach Kenny Atkinson and the rets of this Cavaliers team, they prepare to face a 12-5 Raptors squad lead by Barnes and scoring forward Brandon Ingram.
