The Toronto Raptors defeated the Utah Jazz 107–100 on February 1st at Scotiabank Arena, pulling away in the third quarter with a 35-point outburst to seize control of a defensive battle. R. Barrett led Toronto with 21 points while S. Mamukelashvili added 20, though the Raptors shot just 41.7 percent from the field and made only 12 three-pointers. Utah's L. Markkanen paced the visitors with 27 points, and I. Collier chipped in 19, but the Jazz struggled significantly, connecting on just 8 threes and shooting 35.6 percent overall while committing 22 turnovers. Toronto's defensive rating of 91.8 proved decisive, holding Utah to a fourth-quarter collapse where the Jazz managed just 16 points. The game finished well below the Vegas total of 234.5, underscoring how the Raptors' suffocating perimeter defense—they recorded 11 steals—and Utah's turnover issues shaped a sluggish, low-scoring affair. Toronto's third-quarter dominance and Utah's 56-rebound advantage failing to translate into points highlight how possession quality mattered more than volume in this matchup. The win strengthens Toronto's Eastern Conference positioning as the Jazz fall further behind in the West playoff race.
