The Toronto Raptors ( 33 - 16 ) handed the Phoenix Suns ( 14 - 36 ) a 104 - 97 loss in the Suns ' first game since firing coach Jeff Hornacek . The Raptors have been among the NBA 's hottest teams since the turn of the new year . On Monday , Toronto saw a season - high 11 - game win streak finally come to a close with a loss to Denver . The disappointment seemed not to carry into Tuesday , however , as the Raptors dealt a loss to the struggling Suns . Toronto 's All-Star backcourt - mates Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan shared Eastern Conference Player of the Month honors for January , as the duo helped lead the team to within three games of the Cavaliers for control of the East . Unsurprisingly , the tandem posted the Raptors ' two highest scoring totals on Tuesday , with Lowry going for 26 and DeRozan scoring 22 . It was an overall strong offensive showing for the Raps , as the team shot a combined 48 percent and turned the ball over just 12 times . Phoenix , meanwhile , has been in a tailspin since losing point guard Eric Bledsoe to a torn meniscus . The team has won just two of their last 22 games , and will now face the challenge of finding a new coach in addition to righting their sinking ship . One bright spot , however , has been rookie standout Devin Booker . The former Kentucky Wildcat exploded for 27 points on Tuesday , including six makes from beyond the arc . Booker has assumed heavy minutes and a starting role due to the absences of Bledsoe and injured shooting guard Brandon Knight . Phoenix will host Houston on Thursday . Toronto will also face off Thursday , traveling to Portland to take on the Trail Blazers .
