Kyle Lowry led the Raptors with 24 points, five rebounds, six assists and a steal in a game where he made a season high six 3-pointers on the night.

DeMar DeRozan came through with 15 points, five rebounds, five assists and two steals. Amir Johnson added 19 points on 7-of-11 shooting and Terrence Ross got 16 points.

It was a close game throughout but the statistics don't lie and at this point in the season, the Raptors were 11-3 when they hit 10 or more three pointers on the night. It also helped the Raptors in the end that the Timberwolves were 3-of-18 from behind the arc.

The Timberwolves were led by Kevin Love, who finished the game with 16 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, and a steal. Kevin Martin also contributed 18 points on 7-14 shooting.

In the last 10 head-to-head meetings between Minnesota and Toronto, the Raptors are 8-2 against the spread and have covered in five straight. These games have also been more of a defensive battle as the 'under' is 7-3 over the same period of time.

Since early February, Toronto is hovering around .500 ATS. They've performed better ATS lately and will be looking to get a win against the Timberwolves on Sunday.

The Timberwolves performance ATS is very similar to the Raptors over the last month winning at close to a 50 percent clip. Minnesota has played well ATS when at home lately so we'll be watching to see if they can buck that trend.
