The Toronto Raptors will look to regroup after a tough loss to the Los Angeles Lakers when they head back to Crypto.com Arena for a date with the Los Angeles Clippers at 10:30 p.m. ET Wednesday night.

Where to Watch

TSN and TSN 1050 will air the game in Toronto. Bally Sports SoCal and AM 570 LA Sports will broadcast for Los Angeles.

What to Watch For

  • Tuesday's loss to the Lakers was a heartbreaker and tensions were high after some outrageous foul calls, but Toronto has no choice but to regather its composure because a red-hot Clippers team is awaiting. The Raptors will have tired legs on the second night of a back-to-back, but they'll have to make do if they want to salvage a split in LA.
  • Toronto's small ball lineups looked pretty good against the Lakers and with Jakob Poeltl sidelined, the Raptors will likely have to turn to Thad Young again. The problem will be trying to stop the Clippers' 7-foot Iviac Zubac whose size and rebounding skills may create issues for Toronto's undersized frontcourt.
  • Kawhi Leonard finally looks healthy this season and is back playing at an elite level again. It's been a few years since he led the Raptors to the championship but it's certainly exciting to see him and Norman Powell still getting it done years later.

Injury Reports

Poeltl and Christian Koloko will be out for Toronto. There's no official word on Otto Porter Jr. or the rest of Toronto's injury report yet.

Moussa Diabate is the lone injured player for the Clippers.

Game Odds

The Raptors are +10.5. point underdogs with an implied win probability of 22%. The total for the game is 237.5.
