Raptors Dominate Third Quarter to Defeat Clippers 115-108

Toronto secures its eighth win in ten games as RJ Barrett leads a balanced team effort against a struggling Kawhi Leonard and short-handed Clippers.

  • RJ Barrett led the Raptors with 20 points, seven assists, and six rebounds, while seven players scored in double figures for Toronto.
  • Toronto's explosive third quarter, highlighted by a 12-2 run and 17-2 fast-break advantage, turned a halftime tie into an 18-point lead entering the fourth quarter.
  • Kawhi Leonard, returning to Toronto, struggled offensively with 14 points on 6-of-18 shooting and missed key free throws late in the game.
  • The Clippers, playing without Norman Powell due to a hip injury, saw their road trip end with a 2-2 record and are now at risk of losing playoff positioning in the Western Conference.
  • The Raptors, who lost 10 straight earlier this season, have now won six of their last seven games and continue their homestand against the New York Knicks on Tuesday.
