Jonas Valanciunas mustered a modest seven points but hauled in 11 boards . The Washington Wizards defeated the Toronto Raptors , 105 - 96 , at Air Canada Centre on Wednesday evening . The Raptors ( 36 - 25 ) have put up valiant efforts thus far in the absence of All-Star point guard Kyle Lowry , with DeMar DeRozan particularly taking on an elevated role . However , when quality opponents come calling , the void felt by the absence of a player of Lowry 's caliber eventually rears its ugly head . Such was the case Wednesday , as the Wizards ( 36 - 23 ) leveraged superb efforts from trade - deadline acquisition Bojan Bogdanovic and trusted shooting guard Bradley Beal to pull out the tough road win . The pair combined for nearly half of Washington 's point total , and the visitors made a game - changing statement in the second quarter by outscoring their hosts by a whopping 26 - 1 in the first 5:54 of the period .
