Raptors Look To Build On Four-Game Winning Streak
The Toronto Raptors play host to the Philadelphia 76ers at Scotiabank Arena on Wednesday evening.

The Raptors (29-14) have won seven of their last 10 games, including their last four in a row. They are coming off a win in Atlanta, where six players scored in double digits, led by Norman Powell, who tallied 27 points on 7-of-14 shooting, in 25 minutes off the bench. Powell has been playing great since returning from injury, averaging 23.6 points on 59.2 percent shooting, over the last five games. Pascal Siakam is still easing back into action, as he is averaging 16.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 1.2 blocks and 1.0 steals, over the last five games. Kyle Lowry continues to drive the team, averaging 18.6 points, 8.0 assists, 3.6 rebounds and 1.1 steals, over the last 10 games. The Raptors maintain a very strong defense, holding opposing teams to 42.7 percent shooting, which is second lowest in the league. On the offensive end, the Raptors average 112.0 points per game and are shooting 37.3 percent from long range, which is third best in the league.

Meanwhile, the 76ers (29-16) have won six of their last 10 games, including their last four in a row. This marks their third and final game of a road trip, as they look to build on their 9-14 road record. Joel Embiid (finger) has missed the last seven games and will remain out through Wednesday's action. While Embiid has been sidelined, the Sixers have managed to keep up the pace largely thanks to the great play of Ben Simmons, who is averaging 21.3 points, 10.2 rebounds, 7.7 assists and 1.9 steals, over the last 10 games, and is coming off a career-high, 34-point outing. Tobias Harris has topped 20 points once in the last five games and is averaging 17.9 points on 45.8 percent shooting, over the last 10 games. The 76ers do a great job of moving the ball, as they average 26.4 assists per game, which is third most in the league.
