Would you believe... the Toronto Raptors have a basketball game tonight? As the trade deadline nears and chatter around the struggling Raptors intensifies, it can be easy to forget there are actual games to be played.
And while tracking player movement and off court drama is part of the fun of following the NBA, the games are fun too — especially when MVP candidate Nikola Jokic and the Denver Nuggets are involved.
Of course, things aren’t much fun for the Raptors right now. They’ve lost nine straight for the first time since actual dinosaurs, not just Toronto Raptors, walked the Earth (or so it feels).
