72% Informative

Toronto Raptors were 8-31 on Jan. 11 , neck-and-neck for the worst record in the NBA with the likes of Washington , Utah and Charlotte at the time.

But a 16-12 run since, including wins in 6 -of-7, has put Toronto in a tough spot.

The Raptors want to be in the sweepstakes for the top pick ( Duke’s Cooper Flagg ), or at least a crack at the Top 4 .
