Tonight at 7:00 p.m. ET, the New Orleans Pelicans (22-28) and Toronto Raptors (26-24) go head-to-head live from the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. The game can be live streamed here. New Orleans fans can hear all of the action on WWL 105.3 while Toronto fans can do the same on Sportsnet 590.
New Orleans will try to beat Toronto for the first time in its last six tries while Toronto enters play in first place in the Atlantic Division and plays the first of two home games before the All-Star break.
The Raptors are coming off of a 118-105 loss at the hands of the Los Angeles Clippers and wouldn't use being tired as an excuse at the end of a three-game trip that saw DeMar DeRozan average 26.4 points.
"Everybody is tired right now," head coach Wayne Casey said per ESPN. "Everybody is preparing for the (All-Star) break, but it's not here yet. We have business to take care of. I just told the guys, 'We have to go back and take care of home."
The Raptors have won eight of their last 10 games at home and will look to keep improving at Air Canada Centre.
"We're a developing young team and we're getting better," Casey told ESPN. "We're doing some good things, but some things we've got to learn to do better. We're happy where we are, but we're not satisfied."
The Pelicans are in the midst of a three-game road trip that started against the Brooklyn Nets on Sunday in a 93-81 defeat that saw Anthony Davis put up 24 points and nine rebounds.
"We just didn't play [well] tonight," Davis said afterwards, according to ESPN. "We know it. Coaches know it. Everybody knows it."
The Pelicans and Raptors faceoff tonight in Toronto.
