Wizards Hoping To Get Lucky In Toronto

The Toronto Raptors are on the schedule for the Washington Wizards tonight and this is a game that will be tough tonight for the Wizards. In fact, they may need a bit of luck tonight. The Raptors have always been a team no one looks forward to playing against. They are long, strong, and athletic. Everyone can dribble and facilitate. They get to the free throw line pretty well, and they have one of the best up and coming stars in the league in Scottie Barnes who has been on fire this year. There is also Pascal Siakim who is one of the most versatile bigs in the game today. Tonight, the Wizards are hoping to make magic happen.

Back to work tonight in Toronto.

The Bottom Line

This game could easily get out of hand early for the Wizards. The Raptors have too many guys that do too many things well. They all can beat you on any given night. The key for the Wizards will be pace. They have to control the tempo of this game. That means Tyus Jones will have to step up tonight. He hasn’t been the guy the Wizards needed him to be this entire season. Sometimes, we see glimpses of what could be something special. However, it hasn’t been up to par. The Wizards have to put the ball in his hands and let him work. He will need to be a leader and floor general to control the pace of this game. He has to know when to find Kyle Kuzma down low on the block. He has to know when to put the ball in Jordan Poole’s hands to get him going. He also has to know when it’s time to run and when it’s time to slow the game down. Tyus Jones will need to have a huge game tonight for the Wizards to come out alive against the Raptors.
