Nick Nurse had suggested Monday morning that Kawhi Leonard needed to go out and destroy some opponent, get himself riled up and simply take over a game. Raptors guard Kyle Lowry had three three-pointers among his 13 points Monday night. After a Nets miss, the Raptors got the ball to Leonard at the elbow and he made the game-winner. He had 18 points Monday night on 9-of-13 shooting, extending his streak of scoring at least 10 points to 19 straight games. Staying around: The game with Brooklyn marked the beginning of a season-long, six-game homestand for the Raptors.
