There was a time earlier this decade when a Friday night game between the Raptors and the Cavs was a spectacle, one of the NBA’s main events. The match-up has fallen on hard times a bit over the last couple years, but with the infusion of Scottie Barnes and Evan Mobley into both team’s rosters — and the former’s official return from injury coming tonight — Toronto v. Cleveland feels like it matters again. Hell, tonight could be about the lowest-stakes confrontation between Barnes and Mobley we could see over the next how ever many years of Eastern Conference basketball.
