The Toronto Raptors struggled in their latest outing, suffering a lopsided 123-89 defeat to the San Antonio Spurs. The team's fatigue from a long West Coast road trip was evident, particularly as they prepared for back-to-back away games. Scottie Barnes led the Raptors with 22 points, marking a career milestone of over 2,000 rebounds and 1,000 assists faster than any other player in franchise history. RJ Barrett, returning from injury, contributed 18 points, while rookie Ja'Kobe Walter added a solid 10 points off the bench.

Head coach Darko Rajakovic lamented the lack of energy and slow start against a Spurs team that dominated both ends of the floor. The Raptors are now facing tough odds with a record of 24-47, placing them in a position for a low draft pick. However, they have a chance to turn things around quickly with another game on the horizon against the Washington Wizards, where they hope to regain their competitive edge.
