Toronto Raptors vs. Denver Nuggets preview
The Toronto Raptors have enjoyed a successful Summer League and remain unbeaten. In their first game, they faced fellow Eastern Conference rivals the Chicago Bulls, securing a blowout 116-72 victory. They followed it up with a win against another team from the East, beating the Orlando Magic by a three-point margin.
In both games, two-way player A.J. Lawson led from the front, averaging 21.5 points. He recorded 22 points against the Bulls and followed it up with a 21-point performance against Orlando, shooting an impressive 100% from the field.
On the other hand, the Denver Nuggets have struggled so far. Facing the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, they suffered a heartbreaking 90-89 loss, which was followed by an 11-point defeat to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
