The Toronto Raptors are at risk of setting a new franchise record for consecutive road losses to start a season if they lose their game against the Pelicans.
Both the Raptors and the Pelicans have battled significant injuries this season, with Toronto's projected starters missing 30 games compared to New Orleans' 52.
The Raptors are particularly struggling in close games, holding a dismal 2-8 record in contests decided by two possessions or less this season.
Despite both teams sharing the same 4-14 record, the Raptors were expected to be in a rebuilding phase, contrasting with the Pelicans' anticipated competitiveness.
