Ibaka, DeRozan lead Raptors past Mavericks, 94-86
DALLAS — The Toronto Raptors have been the NBA’s comeback kids this season, though they’re just as comfortable playing from ahead.
They’re also getting comfortable representing the Eastern Conference in the playoffs.
DeMar DeRozan and Serge Ibaka scored 18 points apiece and the Raptors won their fifth straight game, 94-86 over the Dallas Mavericks on Saturday night.
With its 44th win, Toronto clinched a playoff spot for a franchise-record fourth consecutive year.
