Raptors Secure Fifth Win in Last Six Games
The Toronto Raptors continued their five-game road trip by traveling to Barclays Center to face the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday night. They overcame a slow start to win 119-109, marking their fourth consecutive victory against Brooklyn and their fourth win in November.
Team Performance and Standings
Toronto has improved its record to 6-5 after an initial 1-4 start, winning five of their last six games. This recent success has been largely driven by Immanuel Quickley, who scored a season-high 24 points, along with eight rebounds, five assists, and two steals.
Quickley's Recent Form
- In his last three games, averaging 21.3 points, 6.3 rebounds, 5.7 assists
- Shooting 45.8% (11-of-24) from three-point range
Brooklyn Nets’ Struggles
The Nets drop to a league-worst 1-10 record and are still winless at home (0-6). Their early game was sparked by rookie Egor Demin, who scored 16 points, grabbed four rebounds, and dished five assists in his third start.
Pair Demin’s early performance with Nic Claxton’s lob and a technical free throw, and the Nets initially led 6-0.
Author's Summary
The Raptors extended their winning streak to five games, led by Quickley's impressive play, while the struggling Nets remain at the bottom of the league with only one win this season.
