Toronto Raptors<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Toronto is off today. Its next game is at home to Orlando on Wednesday 28 October. Tip-off is 7:30 PM ET from Scotiabank Arena. Canadian TV: TSN. Our how to watch the NBA in Canada<\/a> guide has the channels and streaming options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

How to use this board<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

NBA games today run from the early evening into the night. West Coast tip-offs land late in Eastern time, so check the time column before you plan around a game. Records are the clubs’ own. A 1-0 club has played once, and early in the season a record says little about who is good and who has simply had an easy schedule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Read the absences table last. It comes from ESPN’s injury feed, and statuses move late in the NBA, so the league’s own report is the final word on game day. Until the club says otherwise, treat anyone listed as questionable as a coin flip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which games get a preview<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Every Raptors game gets a preview. So does any other game with a Canadian angle, such as a Canadian player facing his old club or a Christmas Day tip-off. When a preview exists, the slate table links to it. For the rest of the slate, the table is the whole story we tell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If a late scratch changes how you see a game, our NBA betting hub<\/a> explains the sportsbooks we rate for Canadians, by province.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n
