The Denver Nuggets face off against the Toronto Raptors tonight in Vancouver as part of the 2025 NBA Canada Series.
The Nuggets arrive hungry, looking for another deep playoff run. Led by Nikola Jokic, with Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon anchoring their core, Denver pushed the Oklahoma City Thunder to a Game 7 in last season’s Western Conference Semifinals.
This year’s roster looks even deeper: Jonas Valanciunas, a former Raptor, adds reliable frontcourt depth behind Jokic, while Cameron Johnson — acquired from the Brooklyn Nets — provides an upgrade over Michael Porter Jr. on both ends of the court. He averaged 18.8 points per game last season.
Toronto, meanwhile, will rely on its youthful and homegrown core of RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley. But defense remains a concern as the team works to integrate new additions and find consistency. With the game on Canadian soil, the Raptors will be eager to put on a strong showing in front of a national crowd.
This is the first preseason game for the Raptors. The Nuggets played over the weekend, with their starters logging around 15 minutes each. Jokic and Gordon led the way with 14 points each in the 126-116 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.
