The Toronto Raptors suffered their largest defeat in franchise history

On the night of April 4th, the Toronto Raptors played away against the Minnesota Timberwolves and suffered a defeat with a scoreline of 85-133.

As reported by Ball Don't Lie, the point difference of -48 marks the largest defeat in the history of the Canadian team's franchise. The previous record was set in April 1996 when Toronto lost to the New York Knicks by 46 points (79-125). It's worth noting that the team risks breaking the record for the most consecutive losses.

Furthermore, the Toronto Raptors are approaching the franchise's all-time record for consecutive losses. Currently, the Canadian team has suffered 14 defeats, with the only series in 1997 being longer - 17 consecutive losses. The team's last victory dates back to March 4th when the Toronto Raptors defeated the Charlotte Hornets 111-106.

The next three matches for Toronto are against the Lakers, Milwaukee, and Washington. Therefore, the new record theoretically could be established on April 10th against Indiana.
