Raptors Hope To Stay Strong At Home
The Toronto Raptors play host to the Washington Wizards at Scotiabank Arena on Sunday evening.

The Raptors (36-38) are, 24-14, at home and will look to stay on the right track as they face the third game of a four-game home stand. They continue to deal with injury trouble, as Precious Achiuwa (hamstring), Scottie Barnes (wrist) and Gary Trent (elbow) are listed as questionable for action. Pascal SIakam leads the team, averaging 24.3 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.0 assists per game. Fred VanVleet is averaging 19.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, 7.0 assists and 1.7 steals, while O.G. Anunoby is averaging 16.6 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 2.0 steals per game. The Raptors average 113.0 points per game, and they hold opponents to an average of 112.0 points, which is fifth fewest in the league.

Meanwhile, the Wizards (33-41) snapped a four-game slide with a win in their last outing. They will look to keep the momentum going as they head out on the road with a chance to improve on their, 16-22, road record. They will need players to step up in the absence of Bradley Beal (knee) and Kyle Kuzma (ankle), who will be sidelined. Kristaps Porzingis is averaging 23.0 points, 8.4 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.6 blocks per game. Monte Morris averages 10.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 5.2 assists, while Corey Kispert is averaging 10.1 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists per game. The Wizards average 113.0 points per game, but they give up an average of 113.8 points per game.
