The Raptors are taking to the road in this game and sadly for as good as the Raptors have been playing the road has not been that kind to them.

The Spurs are not going to be battling injuries as much as the Raptors, but it will be a kind of homecoming for Leonard who was traded by the Spurs to Toronto. What is really interesting is this is the first return trip by Leonard to San Antonio since he was traded and that could cause some friction between former coach Popovich and Leonard.
On the year the Spurs have scored a total of 111.5 points a game, but the defense has kept the opponent to 109.2 points a game. The Spurs have ended up getting 24.7 assist a game and have managed to get 44.6 boards a game.
