The Toronto Raptors will take on the Brooklyn Nets in a holiday battle at 7:30 p.m. ET on Thursday at at Scotiabank Arena. The two teams have had a bumpy ride up to this point with five consecutive losses for the Raptors and three for the Nets.

The losing side was boosted by RJ Barrett, who almost dropped a double-double on 32 points and nine assists. He had some trouble finding his footing against the Heat on Thursday, so this was a step in the right direction.

Meanwhile, the Nets were expected to have a tough go of it on Monday, and, well, they did. They suffered a grim 130-101 defeat to the Cavaliers. Brooklyn was in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 72-40.

It's a different story for the Nets, though, as they've been averaging only 38. Given the Raptors' sizable advantage in that area, the Nets will need to find a way to close that gap.
