Raptors out to avenge loss to Timberwolves

The Toronto Raptors will be out to avenge their surprising Sunday loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves when the teams meet again Friday night in Minneapolis.

The Timberwolves ended a four-game losing streak with a 116-112 win at the Raptors' temporary home in Tampa. The result ended a streak of 16 consecutive losses for Minnesota as the road team against the Raptors.

The teams have gone in different directions since their Sunday matchup.

The Raptors won two in a row on the road against the Milwaukee Bucks, including a 110-96 victory Thursday night despite the absence of Kyle Lowry.
