Raptors and Wizards to Begin Two-Game Series in Toronto

Toronto aims to extend its three-game win streak as Washington looks to build on rookie Alex Sarr's strong performance.

The Toronto Raptors, coming off a back-to-back win over the Utah Jazz, will face the Washington Wizards on Saturday night in the first of two games in Toronto.
Immanuel Quickley scored a season-high 34 points in Toronto's Friday win but will be rested for Saturday’s game, according to Raptors coach Darko Rajakovic.
Toronto is managing multiple injuries, including Ochai Agbaji, Gradey Dick, and rookie Ja'Kobe Walter, who strained his right quadriceps during Friday’s game.
Washington’s rookie Alex Sarr, the No. 2 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft, impressed with 21 points and strong paint play in the Wizards’ Wednesday win over Utah.
The Raptors previously defeated the Wizards 106-82 on January 29, and both teams are positioned in the lower standings of the Eastern Conference.
