Here are a few things to note about the Raptors’ schedule this season.

Facing familiar enemies

As has become the norm, former Raptors favorites — especially those from the 2019 championship team — are likely to receive a hero’s welcome upon their return to Toronto. If you want to join in the festivities, here’s a list of notable players and their arrivals back at Scotiabank Arena: Demar DeRozan: In his second season with the Chicago Bulls, DeRozan is scheduled to make two visits to Toronto: First on November 6th and then on February 28th. Serge Ibaka: Now with the Milwaukee Bucks, Ibaka is scheduled to return to Scotiabank Arena on Jan. 4 and the season finale on April 9. Kawhi Leonard: The 2019 Finals MVP missed all of last season recovering from a partial tear in his right knee. Hopefully he will be available when the Los Angeles Clippers come to town on December 27th. Kyle Lowry: The return to Toronto for perhaps the most beloved Raptor of all time, and his Miami Heat, will be on November 16th and March 28th. Norman Powell: Now a member of the Clippers, Powell will accompany Leonard when Los Angeles visits Toronto on Dec. 27. Jonas Valanciunas: The popular New Orleans Pelicans center and his team will visit on February 23rd.

January can prove to be a pivotal month

Looking at each individual month of the schedule, January stands out as featuring both the longest home stretch the team will enjoy and the start of its longest road trip. For six games and 11 days between Jan. 4 and Jan. 14, the Raptors will play in the friendly confines of Scotiabank Arena as they look to start the new year with some wind in their sails. The Raptors will face Milwaukee twice, New York, Portland, Charlotte (but not back-to-back) and then Atlanta during that stretch. Beginning Jan. 25 and then running seven games and 12 days through Feb. 5, the Raptors will be on their longest road trip of the season with stops in Sacramento, Golden State, Portland, Phoenix, Utah, Houston and Memphis. The games against Golden State and Portland will be back-to-back and are one of 12 sets the team will play this season (two fewer than last season). Given the scheduling quirks in January, it could be an important month as a means for the Raptors to pick up wins during the homestand and test themselves on the road with still plenty of runway until the postseason.

Other notable games

Here’s a quick list of other notable games to watch: Nov. 23/Dec. 16 — vs. Brooklyn: It’s unclear if Kevin Durant will still be a part of the Brooklyn Nets when they make their trip up north, but if he is, it’s sure to be a scene at Scotiabank Arena. Nov. 26 — vs. Dallas: The NBA’s brightest young star, Luka Doncic, and his Dallas Mavericks come to town early in the season. As a bonus, Dwight Powell also plays for Dallas, Dwight Powell. Dec. 5 — vs. Boston: The eighth annual Giants of Africa game celebrating the life of Nelson Mandela. December 7 — vs. Los Angeles Lakers: LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers make their annual visit to Toronto. Dec. 18 — vs. Golden State: Canada’s Andrew Wiggins and the defending NBA champion Golden State Warriors make their only trip to the Sixers. Dec. 29 — vs. Memphis: Raptors fans will be in for a treat as high-flying point guard Ja Morant will make his only trip to Toronto, but more importantly, Canadians Dillon Brooks and Brandon Clarke will be back at home their. 6 Jan./Jan. 22 — vs. New York: RJ Barrett and the New York Knicks will be in Toronto in January. Jan. 8 — vs. Portland: Dame time is all well and good, but the real draw with this game is the chance to see London, Ont., native Shaedon Sharpe live. The most mysterious pick in the 2022 draft, no one really knows what kind of player he might be. February 10 — vs. Utah: Canada’s Nickeil Alexander-Walker and the Utah Jazz take on the Raptors in Toronto. March 14 — vs. Denver: Two-time defending MVP Nikola Jokic and Canadian star guard Jamal Murray will be in town with the Denver Nuggets to take on the Raptors. March 16 — vs. Oklahoma City: One game after hosting Murray, the Raptors will call on another of Canada’s best in Cy Gilgeous-Alexander and Lugendz Dort when they take on the Oklahoma City Thunder. March 22 — vs. Indiana: With three Canadians on the Indiana Pacers roster (Oshae Brissett and rookies Bennedict Mathurin and Andrew Nembhard), this Wednesday night in March should be special at Scotiabank Arena. March 24 — vs. Detroit: Canadian veterans Kelly Olynyk and Cory Joseph join this young, exciting Detroit Pistons team, but the storyline that will likely concern Raptors fans when the Pistons visit will be whether Dwane Casey, for once again, get the best of his former team.

US National TV Games

Finally, for those interested, the Raptors have announced that they will be on US national television four times (twice on ESPN and twice on TNT). Additionally, Toronto will play on NBATV five times this season. The Raptors will appear in two more nationally televised US games from last season.
