Raptors face Nets, look to avoid 3-game losing skid: Preview, start time, and more

After another poor showing, the Toronto Raptors have some questions to answer. Following their 127-100 loss against the Atlanta Hawks, Nick Nurse had somethings to say:

As with all young teams, consistent play is, well, inconsistent. The Raptors have now dropped four of their last five games, with three of those losses by an average of 29.7 points. When one of the core five is missing, the Raptors are an average team, hovering just under the .500 mark.

It’s important to remember that growth is not linear, and if a team is to reach its full potential, navigating and bouncing back from tough results like the last 2 is a necessary lesson to learn.
