December 10, 2025

The visiting New York Knicks can advance to the Eastern Conference semifinals of the National Basketball Association (NBA) Cup by maintaining their mastery of the Toronto Raptors on Dec 9 (Dec 10, Singapore time).

The Knicks have defeated the Raptors nine consecutive times entering their NBA Cup quarterfinal in Canada. That includes the only meeting between the teams this season, a 116-94 home victory on Nov 30.

The NBA Cup, however, has been good to the Raptors. They finished first in the East Group A with a 4-0 record to earn home-court advantage. The Knicks were 3-1 to finish first in East Group C.

The teams have been on different trajectories recently. The Knicks have won seven of eight, while Toronto have dropped three straight and five of six.

The Raptors have not defeated the Knicks since January 2023. They enter the contest on the back of a 121-113 home loss to the Boston Celtics.
