The Toronto Raptors defeated the Washington Wizards 112-102 at Capital One Arena in Washington, D.C., securing their first 2-0 start to an NBA season since 2019. Scottie Barnes spearheaded the win with a double-double, recording 28 points and 14 rebounds, while RJ Barrett added 23 points and Kawhi Leonard posted 16 points.
