Toronto Raptors (2-10) and Detroit Pistons (5-8) will face off in a cup game on Friday night at the Scotiabank Arena. The Raptors are in a crisis as they cannot win a match regardless of how well they play. This will be their second cup game on the bounce after falling 99-85 to the Bucks on the road on Wednesday. They needed a break from their league assignments after losing four straight matches. On the other hand, the Pistons will look to continue their winning run in the NBA Cup after outlasting the Heat 123-121 in OT on Wednesday. However, they were on the receiving end Thursday morning, losing 127-120 in OT to the Pistons in a league match. Despite being outscored by an average of 2.5 points, they are not doing badly this season.
