Are Barrett and Quickley playing tonight? Latest Knicks-Raptors updates for March 27
The shorthanded New York Knicks are fresh off a 124-99 win over the shorthanded Pistons. Next up are the shorthanded Raptors. It's that time of year in the NBA when teams out of Play-In Tournament range start to slowly give up.
