“At lot of teams would quit in this situation” – The Raptors still don’t know what their team is yet, or can be. But at least they’re still trying to find out: shttps://www.sportsnet.ca/nba/article/raptors-win-streak-something-to-build-on-entering-off-season/ – 6:10 AM

#76ers escape SA and stay within 1.0 game of IND for 6, but IND owns the tiebreaker with 3 to go. They’re 0.5 game up on MIA for home court in the 7-8 game. PHI has DET, ORL, BKN to close.
MIA: ATL, DAL, TOR.
Brutal loss for Miami tonight. – 10:41 PM
@WashWizards
We battled back but couldn’t complete the comeback.

@ChaseHughesNBCS
Deni Avdija had 32 points, 10 rebounds, 5 assists, 3 blocks and 2 steals against the Raptors.
The only other player in franchise history to have at least those numbers in a game is Elvin Hayes. Joel Embiid is the only other player to do so this NBA season. – 8:45 PM

Raptors win their 2nd straight, 130-122, over visiting Wizards. Toronto now has 25 wins (Memphis has 27) with four games left. IQ leads with 31 points and 13 assists, RJ has 22-8-7. Olynyk with 21-9-5. Avdija with 32 for 15-64 Wiz. Raps home finale is Tuesday vs. Indy. – 8:35 PM
@JLew1050
The Toronto Raptors have won 2 (TWO) straight games.
It’s only the 7th time they’ve won consecutive games this season. They’ll go for their 2nd 3-game win streak of the season (🍕) in Tuesday’s home finale vs Pascal Siakam and the Pacers.
4 games left (but who’s counting?). – 8:35 PM

2023-24 is officially the Wizards worst season (by winning percentage) and most losses in franchise history

@flasportsbuzz
Magic about to beat Bulls. One of (possible but not highly likely) ways Heat could move out of play-in is winning out (at Hawks, Mavs, 2 Raptors) and Magic going 1-3 (two Bucks, at Houston, at 76ers). Magic certainly have exceeded all expectations. – 8:23 PM

Raptors up 12 heading to the fourth, they’re chasing a second straight win for the first time since a season-high three-game winning streak in late February – 7:49 PM
@wcgoldberg
Any chance at getting the sixth seed are virtually gone.
Only way would be for the Pacers to go 1-2 (at TOR, at CLE, vs ATL) and for the Heat to win out (at ATL, vs DAL, vs TOR, vs TOR). – 7:41 PM
@ScottAgness
Pacers hold off the Heat 117-115, to remain the 6-seed for the final week of the regular season. And now they own the tiebreaker.
This one had a playoff feel. Seven Pacers in double figures, led by McConnell’s 22pts. Turner had 22/13. Butler with 27-7-8.
Next: Tue. at TOR – 7:38 PM
@ChaseHughesNBCS
Some big first half stat lines for the Wizards (down 63-50 to Raptors):
Deni Avdija – 17 pts, 2 blk, 2 stl
Corey Kispert 16 pts (4-5 3PT)
Jordan Poole – 10 pts, 8 ast – 7:14 PM
@michaelgrange
63-50 Raptors at half as Wizards cut Toronto’s 29-point lead to 13. Still, some good basketball from Toronto who are as healthy as they’ve been in five weeks. Trent Jr and Quickly with 12 each, Olynyk with 10. Avdija with 17 and Kispert with 16 for Wiz who trailed 42-17 at 1Q. – 7:12 PM
@JLew1050
Trent: +26
Quickley/Olynyk: +24
Agbaji: +21
McDaniels: -10 in 4 mins
Brown: -10 in 10 mins
Freeman-Liberty: -9 in 6 mins
Wizards cut the Raptors’ lead (once 29) down to 6 during an, uhhh, uninspiring stretch in the 2nd Q but the starters extended it back to 13 going into half. – 7:11 PM
@JLew1050
First 10 minutes: 42 points, 16-24 FG
Next 10 minutes: 4 points, 2-19 FG
Your 2023-24 Toronto Raptors, ladies and gents. – 7:00 PM
@ChaseHughesNBCS
The Wizards went down by 29 points in the first quarter to the Raptors, but it’s now a 9-point game midway through the 2nd.
Wiz let a 23-point lead slip away in Toronto earlier this year. Could we see the reverse happen? – 6:55 PM
@JLew1050
This Ujiri/Webster-led front office has done a lot of things well during its decade in Toronto but free agency isn’t among them, and Jalen McDaniels (who still has another year of guaranteed $ left on his deal) might be their worst signing ever. – 6:55 PM
@SmithRaps
Raptors had 42 points in the first quarter, they have 2 in the first six minutes of the second – 6:54 PM
@AaronBenRose
Raptors up 42-17 over the Wizards in the 1st quarter. Most points scored and biggest 1st quarter lead of the season – 6:39 PM
@JLew1050
Raptors lead Washington 42-17 after 12 minutes. The adage “they want it more” doesn’t just apply to the guys on the court, apparently. Wizards took the L the moment they filled out the lineup card. – 6:39 PM
@LawMurrayTheNU
Only comebacks for Clippers bigger than today including playoffs:
– down 35 in Washington 2022
– down 31 in Golden State 2019 playoffs
– down 28 in Boston 2019 – 6:35 PM

@johnhollinger
Pretty tough to double Kyrie and also faceguard Luka. P.J. Washington gets a wiiiiide open corner 3 and puts Dallas up 142-136 with 59 seconds left.
Rockets will be eliminated if this holds. – 6:27 PM

Raptors up 25-9 and this whole tanking for Caitlin Clark’s taking a beating – 6:22 PM

Kelly’s outside shooting been regressing to the mean.
Olynyk now shooting 40% from three since March 9, was at 25% from Feb. 9 – March 8 – 6:20 PM

All 5 Raptors starters have scored 4:16 in. They’ve hit 7 of their first 11 shots and lead 16-6. Wizards be Wizarding. – 6:17 PM

Penultimate home one: Raptors start Quickley, Trent, Barrett, Agbaji, Olynyk – 6:07 PM

Kevin Ollie said Nic Claxton is “day-to-day” with that sprained ankle, but hopes the center can be back Wednesday vs. the #Raptors. #Nets – 5:50 PM
@Jim_Eichenhofer
With Suns and #Pelicans both losing to Spurs recently, wondered what each team’s record is vs. the nine #NBA teams that have been eliminated from postseason contention:
NOP 19-5 (losses 2X to Mem with Morant, 2X to Uta in Nov., SAS)
Phx 18-7 (losses 3X to SAS, Mem, Por, Tor, Bkn) – 5:48 PM

Congrats to South Carolina. What a team.

Gary Trent and Bruce Brown are both available vs. Wizards. Rajakovic said he has no plans to have Poeltl and Barnes back before end of the season, but that they are ramping up to be in the best condition possible heading into off-season. – 4:23 PM
@JLew1050
Gary Trent Jr. and Bruce Brown are both available vs Washington today. This is as healthy as the Raptors have been in a while, though they’re still missing Barnes, Poeltl, Boucher, Carton and Porter. – 4:22 PM
@JLew1050
Darko Rajakovic was asked if there’s a chance that Scottie Barnes and/or Jakob Poeltl could return for any of the Raptors’ final 5 games of the season; he would neither confirm nor deny. “They’re ramping up and we’re trying to get them in the best state possible.” – 4:21 PM
@townbrad
Need to give equal shoutouts: Mentioned the last two games that Paul Washington Sr. was in @AACenter. P.J.’s mom Sherry was here for P.J.’s 32-point performance on Friday and both parents are here today. They tell me P.J. gets scoring from mom, rebounding from dad. Both played at… – 3:38 PM
