Toronto won its franchise-best seventh straight road game on Monday in a 95-91 triumph against Portland. The Dinos will be playing in the third of a seven-game road trip after toppling Utah and the Blazers. The Raptors have won 14 of their last 16 and will face Golden State, Phoenix, the Los Angeles Lakers and San Antonio before heading back to Canada.

The Warriors have dominated this series of late, claiming each of the last five meetings between the clubs. Toronto’s last win over Golden State came in March of 2014 – a 104-98 victory.
