The Raptors did n't need much beyond DeMar DeRozan and Jonas Valanciunas on Wednesday to beat the Pistons . The duo combined for 72 points on 27 - for - 42 shooting , while the rest of the starting five could only muster a 30 percent success rate ( 7 - for - 23 ) from the field . Pascal Siakam , Toronto 's 2016 first - round pick , pitched in nine boards while starting at power forward , but Kyle Lowry was the only other player to manage double - digit scoring ( 10 points ) . Andre Drummond was often overmatched by Valanciunas and collected a modest 16 points and six boards . The Pistons had a similarly unbalanced box score , as Drummond , Marcus Morris and Tobias Harris combined for 55 of the team 's 91 points while shooting 22 - for - 41 from the field . Meanwhile , their starting backcourt of Ish Smith and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope went cold , supplying a combined 10 points on 5 - for - 19 shooting . The Toronto Raptors defeated the Detroit Pistons , 109 - 90 , at Air Canada Centre on Wednesday . The Raptors ( 0 - 1 ) invested heavily into their star two - guard DeMar DeRozan in the offseason , inking the 27 - year old to a five - year , $ 139 million contract . He began paying immediate dividends on that hefty sum Wednesday , tallying a game - high 40 points and adding four rebounds , an assist and a steal . While the stellar showing was n't necessarily a surprise from a player of his caliber , the fact that Jonas Valanciunas , and not Kyle Lowry , checked in as Toronto 's second - leading scorer was a tad more unexpected . The veteran big man dominated in his showdown with Andre Drummond , posting a 32 - point , 11 - rebound double - double that also included an assist . The dominant Raptors , which outscored Detroit in every quarter , did n't need much else , with Lowry the only other player to hit double digits on the scoreboard . The Pistons ( 0 - 1 ) were led by Tobias Harris ' 22 points , which he supplemented with five rebounds , an assist and a steal . Marcus Morris supplied a near double - double with 17 points , nine boards , three assists and a steal , but struggled from long range , draining only a pair of his eight three - point attempts . Drummond tallied 16 points , six rebounds and a steal , while the starting backcourt of Ish Smith and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope only managed 10 combined points on 5 - for - 19 shooting . In addition to the combined 72 points they received from DeRozan and Valanciunas , the Raptors saw Lowry pitch in with 10 points , eight assists , five boards and a steal . Accuracy was the All-Star point guard 's biggest issue , as he could only manage a 3 - for - 13 tally from the field , including 1 - for - 5 from behind the arc . DeMarre Carroll registered eight points , seven rebounds , an assist and a steal , while rookie Pascal Siakam went for four points , nine boards and a steal over 22 minutes . Detroit next takes on the Magic in their home opener on Friday , while Toronto remains home for an Eastern Conference Finals re - match with the Cavaliers on Friday as well .
