Nets at Raptors preview: How to watch, TV channel, start time

Here is the preview of the Brooklyn Nets’ matchup at the Toronto Raptors on Thursday.

The Brooklyn Nets (21-33, 11th in the Eastern Conference) visit Scotiabank Arena on Thursday to take on the Toronto Raptors (19-36, 12th) for the second time this season and if you’re wondering how you can watch all the action live, you’ve come to the right place!

The Nets come into this game following a 136-86 loss at the Boston Celtics on Feb. 14 in which Brooklyn looked lifeless and defeated in Jacque Vaughn’s last game as head coach. The Nets promoted Kevin Ollie to interim head coach following Vaughn’s firing so it will be interesting to see how the team responds to him coming out of the All-Star break.

Nets guard Dennis Schröder will be playing in Toronto for the first time since he was traded from the Raptors to Brooklyn during the NBA trade deadline.

The Raptors enter this matchup after a 127-125 loss against the Indiana Pacers on Feb. 14 that resulted in Toronto heading into the All-Star break on a three-game losing streak. Pacers forward Pascal Siakam, who began this season as a member of the Raptors, put up 23 points and seven assists in his first game against his former team while Toronto forward Scottie Barnes dropped 29 points and 12 rebounds.
