Off to a 2-0 start despite being without superstar Kawhi Leonard, the San Antonio Spurs get their toughest test of the young season on Monday night, as they host the Toronto Raptors, who are also 2-0.
The oddsmakers favor San Antonio slightly, but this should easily be one of the best games on a busy Monday night of NBA.
Tip is scheduled for about 8:40 p.m. ET and will be broadcast locally on Fox Sports Southwest (Spurs markets), TSN 2 (Raptors market) and NBA TV (national broadcast). Depending on your location, your options for watching a live stream of the game will be different.

Projected Spurs Starting Lineup
| Pos | Player |
|---|---|
| PG | Dejounte Murray |
| SG | Kyle Anderson |
| SF | Danny Green |
| PF | LaMarcus Aldridge |
| C | Pau Gasol |
Notes: Kawhi Leonard (quad) has been ruled out and doesn’t appear very close to returning
Projected Raptors Starting Lineup
| Pos | Player |
|---|---|
| PG | Kyle Lowry |
| SG | DeMar DeRozan |
| SF | Norman Powell |
| PF | Serge Ibaka |
| C | Lucas Nogueira |
Notes: With Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) ruled out, it will be Nogueira and Jakob Poeltl soaking up the minutes at center. Both are candidates to start, though Poeltl’s superior offensive game makes sense coming off the bench.
