Where: Staples Center.

On the air: TV: TWC SportsNet, TWC Deportes; Radio: 710, 1330.

Records: Lakers 3-13; Raptors 13-3.

Record vs. Raptors (2013-14): 1-1.

Update: Toronto was one of the NBA’s biggest surprises, sitting atop the Eastern Conference thanks to the scoring of Kyle Lowry (18.6 points a game) and former USC standout DeMar DeRozan (19.4 points). But DeRozan sustained a torn tendon in his groin and was expected to be out indefinitely, putting a possible damper on the NBA’s second-best offense that was averaging 107.6 points before Saturday’s games. The Lakers are 27-8 against the Raptors and haven’t lost a season series to them since the franchise began play in 1995.
