Game 82 has finally arrived as the Toronto Raptors will wrap up their regular season at home against the Milwaukee Bucks Sunday afternoon at 1 p.m. ET.

Where to Watch

Sportsnet and TSN 1050 will carry the broadcast for Toronto. Bally Sports Wisconsin and WTMJ 620 will call the game for Milwaukee.

What to Watch For

It's a completely meaningless game for both teams and the rosters will suggest that. If there's one thing to watch it's Gary Trent Jr.'s rhythm. He's 0-for-6 from three-point range in his first two games back from injury and Toronto needs him back in a groove before the play-in tournament starts Wednesday.
Toronto should get a longer look at some reserves Sunday including Malachi Flynn, Dalano Banton, and Christian Koloko. None of those players will see meaningful playing time in the postseason but their growth behind the scenes this year could be important for the organization moving forward.
At this point, it's arguable that Toronto's best interest would be to lose Sunday's game. The team can't fall lower in the play-in picture, but a loss to Milwaukee could improve the Raptors' lottery odds. Toronto could fall into a three-way tie for 11th with a loss and wins by Oklahoma City and Chicago.

Injury Report

Toronto will be without Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, O.G. Anunoby, Jeff Dowtin Jr., and Otto Porter Jr.

The Bucks have ruled out Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris Middleton, Brook Lopez, Jrue Holiday, Pat Connaughton, Grayson Allen, and AJ Green.

Game Odds

The Raptors are -3 point favorites with an implied win probability of 60.6%. The total for the game is 224.5.
