The Brooklyn Nets look to snap their brutal four-game losing streak as they welcome the Toronto Raptors to Barclays Center in what shapes up as a clash between two teams searching for late-season identity.
While the Nets have dropped 14 of their last 16 games despite Nic Claxton's recent strong play, including 19 points in their last outing, the Raptors enter with renewed energy after snapping their own four-game skid behind Jakob Poeltl's 21-point double-double against Washington.
The Nets' home court advantage will be put to the test as the scrappy Raptors, who've gone 7-2 against the spread in their last nine games, aim to split the season series in this matchup between the Brooklyn home team and Toronto away team.

Brooklyn Nets vs. Toronto Raptors preview
The struggling Brooklyn Nets host the Toronto Raptors at Barclays Center in what's shaping up to be a battle of two teams searching for their identity.
Brooklyn's recent skid has been brutal - they've dropped 14 of their last 16 games, with Nic Claxton's solid 19-point performance against Dallas being one of the few bright spots.
The Raptors, despite their own challenges, have shown some fight lately, coming off a gritty win over Washington where Jakob Poeltl dominated with 21 points and 11 boards.
Both teams' offenses have hit a serious rough patch in March, with Brooklyn and Toronto ranking among the bottom five in offensive rating.
The injury bug hasn't helped either side - Brooklyn's missing Cam Thomas's 24 points per game due to a hamstring issue, while Toronto's Brandon Ingram hasn't suited up since his February trade arrival.
What makes this matchup intriguing is both teams' surprising ability to cover the spread this season - the Raptors are third-best in the NBA against the spread, while Brooklyn's managed to cover in seven of their last nine.
The head-to-head history between these Atlantic Division rivals has been tight, with their two meetings this season split evenly.
With key players resting on both sides and defense likely to dictate the tempo, expect a scrappy, low-scoring affair at Barclays.
