VanVleet, Davis lead Raptors past Nets for 14th straight victory. MORE:
Pascal Siakam and rookie Terence Davis had 20 points apiece for the Raptors , who were missing six-time all-star guard Kyle Lowry. Matt Thomas had 15 points, while Serge Ibaka chipped in with 12.The Raptors' previous best win streak was 11 games, which they'd accomplished three times.
The Raptors took their first double-digit lead in the second quarter, stretching it to 18 points in the third, and went into the fourth up 100-88. But three consecutive baskets by LeVert tied the game 118-118 with just 35 seconds to play. With the capacity crowd of 19,800 on its feet, Siakam was fouled, making one of his two free throws with 23 seconds left. LeVert and Joe Harris both missed shots on Brooklyn's last possession.
The Raptors' streak could grow by one more game at least. They host the beleaguered Minnesota Timberwolves — who have lost 13 in a row — on Monday.
