After a gruelling, six-game road trip from which the team emerged with just two wins, the Toronto Raptors will finally return home to face off against their division rivals the Boston Celtics. With numerous injuries to some of Toronto’s most versatile and helpful defenders piling up, the team is hoping to regain some footing in the coming days with some of these players’ imminent returns approaching.
The Celtics have similarly seen some ups and downs as a team this year, coming into today’s matchup on a two-game losing streak after having put together some strong performances prior.
