VanVleet steps up with Lowry down and the Raptors’ record win streak hits 14 — it wasn’t easy

Fred VanVleet scored 29 points and the Toronto Raptors stretched their franchise-record winning streak to 14 games with a 119-118 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday night at Scotiabank Arena.

Pascal Siakam and rookie Terence Davis had 20 points apiece for the Raptors (39-14), who were missing six-time all-star guard Kyle Lowry (whiplash). Matt Thomas had 15 points, while Serge Ibaka chipped in with 12.

Caris LeVert led the Nets with 37 points.

The Raptors’ previous best win streak was 11 games, which they’d accomplished three times.

A day after his energetic 17-point outburst in the Raptors’ 115-106 win in Indiana, Davis earned his second NBA start.
