Toronto was on the second leg of a back-to-back and came into the game hobbling without a full lineup. The All-Star break could not come at a better time for the Raptors who have Brandon Ingram out with an ankle injury and Jakob Poeltl out with a hip injury. There is no timetable for their return and their absence was felt Wednesday night.

Donovan Mitchell scored 21 points and the East-leading Cleveland Cavaliers beat the Toronto Raptors 131-108 on Wednesday night for their fourth straight victory and eighth in the last nine games
