(My Sportsbook) - The Denver Nuggets will resume a four-game road trip Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors at Air Canada Centre. The Nuggets are 1-1 so far on the trek and had a two-game winning streak stopped after a 109-91 loss to the Atlanta Hawks on Monday at Philips Arena. Kenyon Martin had 19 points to pace Denver, which will also visit Oklahoma City and is 9-8 as the guest this season. Carmelo Anthony added 16 points for the Nuggets in the loss. Denver center Nene (neck) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Toronto. Toronto will open a three-game homestand Wednesday and has lost two straight and seven of its last nine games. It completed a six-game road trip with a 2-4 mark and suffered a 117-111 loss at Golden State on Monday at ORACLE Arena. Chris Bosh finished with 30 points and pulled down 14 rebounds, while Jose Calderon contributed 21 points and a game-high 16 assists for the Raptors, who will try to work on their 5-8 home record on New Year's Eve. The Raptors will also host Houston and Orlando at Air Canada Centre. Toronto forward Jermaine O'Neal (flu/knee) is questionable for Wednesday. He played just over eight minutes against the Warriors and posted three rebounds, two points and an assist. Toronto interim head coach Jay Triano is just 4-10 since taking over for the fired Sam Mitchell. Denver handed Toronto a 132-93 beating on December 2 this season and has won three straight and 10 of the last 15 meetings. These two teams have split the last 12 matchups in Canada. |
