Postgame: Raptors 115, Pelicans 91

Raptors (49-23), Pelicans (26-46)

In two head-to-head matchups this season, Toronto has put the defensive clamps on New Orleans, holding the Pelicans to two of their lowest-scoring games of 2015-16. It was a bit easier to do so Saturday than during the November meeting in Canada, with New Orleans playing without all of its top six scorers. The Raptors took advantage by building a double-digit lead in the first half and never looking back. The Pelicans managed only 36 first-half points and shot just 34.9 percent prior to intermission. New Orleans scored a season-low 81 points in Toronto and had just 61 through three quarters in the Crescent City this time.
