(Sports Network) – The Toronto Raptors continue their four-game homestand
against the Golden Warriors on Sunday. Aaron Hernandez Womens Jersey . Toronto is
coming off a tough 102-99 loss to Memphis on Friday in the opener of a four-game
homestand, as Jerryd Bayless scored 18 points and James Johnson added 14 in
defeat. Leandro Barbosa chipped in 13 for Toronto, which has dropped six of
eight games and was playing its 17th straight contest without leading scorer
Andrea Bargnani because of a left calf injury. “We had trouble scoring, we
turned the ball over and we couldnt make buckets,” Raptors coach Dwane Casey
said of the third quarter. “Every time we turned the ball over they turned up
the heat.” The Raptors shot a decent 52.8 percent, but Memphis scored 24 points
off 16 turnovers. Toronto is 5-12 as the host and will also entertain Orlando
and Houston up north on the current homestand. DeMar DeRozan is averaging 16.8
points in 17 home games this season. The Warriors have lost two of their last
three games, averaging just 82 points in those contests. The Warriors suffered a
105-83 loss at Philadelphia Friday night and were led by David Lees 24 points
and 15 rebounds—his second 20-10 performance in as many games. Monta Ellis
scored 20 points and handed out seven assists for Golden State, which is 2-2 on
a six-game road trip and had won three of four games before losing to the
Sixers. Dorell Wright was the only other scorer in double figures with 10
points. “They got whatever they wanted. We didnt come out of the locker room
with the right mind set,” Warriors head coach Mark Jackson said. “They jumped on
us and took total control of the basketball game.” Golden State is 5-10 away
from Oakland this season and will close out the road swing Monday at Washington.
Warriors guard Stephen Curry has missed two of the last three games with a
strained tendon in his right foot and is listed as questionable for Sunday. Lees
19.3 points per game rank fourth among power forwards. Ellis leads the team with
22.2 ppg. Toronto and Golden State are meeting for the first time since the
Warriors swept a home-and-home set a year ago. In fact, the Warriors have won
five in a row, seven of eight and 14 of the previous 18 meetings in the series.
