Thursday, January 9th finds the Toronto Raptors facing the Cleveland Cavaliers for the third of four scheduled meetings this season.
Toronto arrives on the tail end of a back-to-back set having lost 98-112 to the Knicks while the Cavs also played Wednesday collecting an impressive 129-122 victory over the Thunder.
Season Series
Last season the Cavaliers took two of the three regular-season matchups and also hold the all-time record between the clubs with 58 victories in 109 matches.
*Editor’s Note: Statistics and rankings are current as of this writing, Wednesday, January 8th. Numbers may vary slightly entering games on Thursday, January 9th.
Toronto Raptors
For just the third time this season, the Raptors had everyone in the starting rotation healthy but the effusive praise about the BBQ (Barnes, Barrett, Quickley) big 3 has yet to play dividends at least in the small sample size.
Oddly what made this unit seem appealing was each of their playmaking abilities but if anything the players without the ball in their hands seem to be struggling. The question is whether a larger sample will equate to improvements in chemistry and results.

Raptors Stats
Toronto ranks 25th on offense (109.2) and 27th on defense (117.1) while they offer a minus -7.9 net differential registering 28th overall.
The Raptors are also a deceivingly good bet against the spread with a 20-16-1 record through 37 matches.
Raptors Injury Report
To summarize the injury report…
- Ochai Agbaji, SG (left last game/questionable — back contusion)
Cleveland Cavaliers
With arguably their most important victory to date, the Cavaliers held on at home to defeat the OKC Thunder. This statement win will add fuel to the fire of Cleveland’s legitimacy as a title contender.
In truth, either team could’ve won, but the Cavs held serve at home. They enter Thursday with a rest advantage against a tired Raptors team struggling to find its identity.
Cavaliers Stats
Cleveland ranks first offensively (121.5), and eighth defensively (110.1) with a plus +11.3 net differential that ranks second overall.
The Cavaliers perform very well against the spread posting a 26-10 record this season.
Cavaliers Injury Report

The question is whether they will suffer any letdown (making this a trap game), or if theyll simply demolish the dinos who have looked worse instead of better since implementing the BBQ lineup.
