SAS vs TOR Dream11 MATCH PREVIEW:

Two teams flying at the moment will collide as San Antonio Spurs collide against Toronto Raptors in an NBA match at AT&T Center, in  San Antonio, Texas, on Friday morning (IST).

 

San Antonio Spurs:
After a slow start to the season, San Antonio Spurs are finally hitting the heights they are more than capable of reaching. This is the least expected of them considering the quality and their profile.

The last four were as toughest as they can ever be as they faced Denver Nuggets twice in consecutive games, and also faced a high performing Los Angeles Clippers and Boston Celtics in the last two matches. They could have easily lost all these games had they played at a level they consigned to in the first few weeks of the new season.

But not now. They split with Nuggets, winning 111-103 and losing 102-99 to them and also won 111-123 and 120-111 in the last two matches against Clippers and Celtics.

Now Spurs are on a two game winning streak. But it’s not the whole indicator about the turnaround in their fortunes. Gregg Popovich and his men have also won 10 times in the last 13 games coming into this match.

 

Toronto Raptors:
Toronto Raptors have literally picked up from where they finished the regular season during the 2017-18 campaign. At the moment, they are 2nd in the Eastern Conference table and possess the second best winning percentage record this season, behind only the surprise leader Milwaukee Bucks.

 

Regular Season Record-
San Antonio Spurs: W-21, L-17
Toronto Raptors: W-28, L-11

 

Players to watch out for:
San Antonio Spurs:
DeMar DeRozan – He could be extra motivated against his former team. The 29-year-old is racking up more than 22 points per game this season. The numbers may not be insane but he is an indispensable part of Spurs roster.
LaMarcus Aldridge – The former Portland Trail Blazers superstar is having a pretty good season. The 33-year-old is dropping 19.5 points per game but has the potential to win the game on his own. His season best is 38 points.

 

Toronto Raptors:
Kawhi Leonard – Gregg Popovich never wanted him to trade but he had to succumb to his former protege’s wishes. The 2014 NBA finals MVP is dropping 27.3 points per game this season.
Serge Ibaka – No other player is averaging in the 20s for Toronto this season but players like Serge Ibaka and Pasal Siakam are playing the role of perfect supporting cast.

 

SAS vs TOR Dream11 TEAM NEWS:
San Antonio Spurs:
Injured – Dejanute Murray has been ruled out with a knee injury.
Questionable – Rudy Gay, meanwhile, is suffering from a wrist injury and is expected to be assessed ahead of the match.
Suspended – None

 

Toronto Raptors:
Injured – Toronto Raptors have been inconsistent in the last few weeks and that could be down to the injury to Kyle Lowry and Jonas Valanciunas. Both the players will be missing this match as well.
Questionable – None.
Suspended – None.
