He did nail a three-pointer in the fourth off a kick-out from Pascal Siakam and finished the night with 27 points, ten assists, and seven rebounds. He did break through with a 32-foot jumper early in the fourth but finished the night with just two buckets from behind the arc. "He's been pretty shifty on changing directions or starting one way and going the other at the start of his drives which is getting him past his defender," Raptors coach Nick Nurse said of VanVleet's aggressive paint scoring.

Trailing by four, Barnes drilled a three from in front of the Kings bench to make it a one-point game. Fox had a single free throw with 5.9 left, and then VanVleet’s three-pointer bounced off the rim. VanVleet scored a season-high 39 points for the Raptors (13-15).
