Ibaka scores 18 points, Raptors beat Rockets in first game in over four months

More than four months after COVID-19 shut down the NBA, the Toronto Raptors took up where they left off — with a victory.

Serge Ibaka scored 18 points to lead the Raptors to a 94-83 win over the Houston Rockets on Friday in their first scrimmage at Walt Disney World.

Terence Davis added 15 points, while Pascal Siakam had 13, Norm Powell finished with 12, and Kyle Lowry chipped in with 11.

James Harden led Houston with 24 points, while Danuel House Jr., had 18 and Russell Westbrook finished with 10.

The Raptors hadn’t played a game in 138 days, a 101-92 victory in Utah that came two days before the NBA shut down March 11 due to COVID-19.
