Raptors' Depth Shines in Victory Over Short-Handed 76ers

Toronto's bench players deliver career-best performances to secure a 118-105 win, highlighting the team's development pipeline.

Jared Rhoden recorded his first NBA double-double with 25 points, 12 rebounds, and a career-high four steals in his second career start.
A.J. Lawson led the Raptors with 28 points, following up his 32-point game earlier in the week, while Orlando Robinson also posted a double-double with 25 points and 12 rebounds.
Toronto played without nine players, including four usual starters, while Philadelphia was missing eight players, including key stars Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey.
The Raptors capitalized on a strong second quarter, outscoring the 76ers by 22 points, but overcame a third-quarter slump to secure the win with a decisive fourth-quarter run.
The victory moves Toronto ahead of Philadelphia in the standings, giving the 76ers the fifth-best odds in the upcoming NBA Draft lottery, while the Raptors hold the seventh-worst record in the league.
