The New York Knicks (12-13) are heading to Canada to take on the Toronto Raptors (11-14)

The New York Knicks can drop even further in the standings with a loss. The Toronto Raptors and Knicks could have identical records by the end of Friday night.

New York’s inconsistent season continued on Tuesday and Wednesday. After notching an impressive win over the San Antonio Spurs, the Knicks laid an egg against the Indiana Pacers.

The Raptors took the first game of this season series in Madison Square Garden back in early November.
