The Toronto Raptors defeated the Cleveland Cavaliers 112–101 on October 31 at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse, with balanced scoring from B. Ingram and R. Barrett each contributing 20 points to secure the road victory. Cleveland's E. Mobley led all scorers with 29 points and was supported by D. Hunter's 26, but the Cavaliers shot just 40 percent from the field and committed 13 turnovers, limiting their offensive efficiency to 102.9. Toronto's superior ball movement and shooting—48.8 percent from the field with 13 three-pointers made—paired with 27 assists and 48 rebounds, proved decisive. The Raptors' defensive rating of 102.9 held Cleveland's third quarter to just 34 points despite the Cavaliers' strong 10 steals, while Toronto's own third-quarter explosion (33 points) proved the game's turning point. Toronto's four-point road win demonstrates early-season depth and road resilience heading into November.
