The Toronto Raptors (9-31) mounted a furious rally in the fourth and edged out the Golden State Warriors (19-20) with a 104-101 victory on January 14.
Toronto Raptors Top Performers:
Scottie Barnes 23 PTS | 8 REB | 6 AST | 50.6 FPS
Barnes has been consistently putting up elite numbers across five key categories this month. He’s recorded 20+ points in five games and 3.75 stocks over his last four.
Jakob Poeltl 13 PTS | 13 REB | 1 BLK | 32.6 FPS
Poeltl has kept up his usual dominance, shooting a remarkable 66.1% from the field while scoring in double digits five times this month. He’s also tallied double-digit rebounds in three of his last four games, with his defensive stats remaining impressive.
Chris Boucher 18 PTS | 7 REB | 1 BLK | 32.4 FPS
Boucher has been playing over 20 minutes for three straight games, and his shooting, both from the field and from three, has been impressive. He had a particularly explosive fourth quarter today.
RJ Barrett 15 PTS | 4 REB | 5 AST | 24.3 FPS
Barrett has gone ice-cold, missing a lot of shots both from the field and three. He’s also shooting a terrible 40% from the line, and his overall contributions continue to trend down.
Ochai Agbaji 12 PTS | 3 REB | 2 BLK | 21.6 FPS
Agbaji has carved out a solid role with the Raptors. He can contribute with threes and steals, but he needs to be more consistent.
Golden State Warriors Top Performers:
Stephen Curry 26 PTS | 7 REB | 7 AST | 43.9 FPS
Curry missed his last game due to a back-to-back but remains his usual explosive self, dropping 26+ points four times in his last five. His rebounds and steals have also stayed consistent, and he’s yet to miss at the line. He can take his game to the next level if he improves his efficiency from long-range.
Buddy Hield 8 PTS | 4 STL | 1 BLK | 27.9 FPS
Hield has been contributing with rebounds and assists lately, but his struggles from deep persist. He went 2-for-10 today after shooting 11-for-37 in his last four games.
Andrew Wiggins 20 PTS | 4 3PT | 1 STL | 26.1 FPS
Wiggins has always been a valuable contributor on both ends of the court. He’s continued his efficient shooting even after missing the last two games, scoring 18+ points three times in his last four games. He’s also been a consistent threat for stocks, recording at least one in ten of his last eleven.
Kevon Looney 10 PTS | 9 REB | 1 STL | 25.3 FPS
Looney has consistently put up steals and solid rebounds despite limited minutes in his last three outings.
Kyle Anderson 13 PTS | 2 REB | 1 STL | 21.4 FPS
Anderson has been filling up the stat sheet recently despite inconsistent minutes.
Biggest Disappointment of the Game:
Dennis Schroder 12 PTS | 3 REB | 4 AST
Schroder has been a major part of the Warriors’ offense, but his impact continues to be limited. His ongoing struggles from three remain a significant obstacle.
