The schedule for the first half of the Toronto Raptors’ 2021-21 season was unveiled this Friday. With many road games, back-to-backs, and matchups against East contenders. February is looking to be a tough month for the Raptors.
Released through March 4, the Toronto Raptors are set to play 17 of 37 games at their new temporary home, Tampa Bay’s Amalie Arena.
For the second year in a row, the Raptors will be opening the season at “home” against the New Orleans Pelicans on Dec. 23. The biggest difference, apart from the loss of Ibaka and Gasol, is that the Raptors won’t be holding a ring ceremony to kick off the season.
