The Raptors find their way back to victory

The 34-point performance of Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard was not enough to snatch the victory for the Toronto Raptors. The latter won by a score of 117 to 105 at Scotiabank Arena.

Although the gap closed late in the game, Nick Nurse's squad rolled up their sleeves and snapped a three-game losing streak.

It was a joint effort that allowed the Toronto team to win. Pascal Siakam, Scottie Barnes and Gary Trent Fils respectively finished the game with 27, 22 and 19 points.

Star player Damian Lillard won't be able to say he didn't try with his 34 points. He scored 14 of his 34 points in the fourth quarter. Anfernee Simons had 22 points. His teammate Jusuf Nukic finished with 14 points and 18 rebounds.

Montrealer Chris Boucher had a rather difficult outing in the win for his team, obtaining only three points in ten minutes. However, he managed his only shot.
