Jakob Poeltl scores 30 points as Toronto Raptors cruise past Orlando Magic 123-113
Jakob Poeltl’s 30 points were one shy of a career high as he led the Toronto Raptors past the Orlando Magic 123-113 on Tuesday.He had a career-best 31 points for the San Antonio Spurs in a 117-110 loss to the Portland Trail Blazers on Nov. 15.
The win means that Toronto and Orlando, who are jockeying for the final play-in berth in the NBA’s Eastern Conference, will finish their season series 2-2.Chris Boucher, from Montreal, fell to the ground as he went for a two-handed drunk with 1.5 seconds left in the first quarter. He sat on the ground and egged on the sellout crowd of 19,800 at Scotiabank Arena to cheer before getting up and hitting a free throw to make it 35-27 for the Raptors.
Forward Thad Young, who had been a sparkplug for Toronto off the bench in the first quarter, left the game in the second with a knee strain and did not return. VanVleet passed the ball from the ground to Siakam, who drilled a three-pointer with 7:35 left in the quarter. Poeltl followed that up with a four-foot shot to make it 83-75 for Toronto and force an Orlando timeout.
