It's important to note that this match is not related to the NBA regular season, but rather a different competition, as indicated by the Hungary - Turkey reference and the June 16, 2023 date. However, the outcome of this match could have significant implications for both teams' morale and momentum heading into the final stages of the regular season.
As the Knicks continue to show a decent result, the Raptors will need to find a way to turn their fortunes around if they want to secure a spot in the main tournament. The upcoming match against the Knicks presents an opportunity for both teams to make a statement and move closer to their respective goals.
