| (SportsNetwork.com) - The Eastern Conference-leading Toronto Raptors are back in the great white north for a brief moment and will host the Dallas Mavericks Friday night from Air Canada Centre. The Raptors are 13-2 and have won six in a row, including Wednesdays 126-115 beatdown of the Hawks in Atlanta. DeMar DeRozan scored 27 points, Lou Williams added 22 and Greivis Vasquez scored 21 points for the Raptors, who shot 51.2 percent and scored 30 or more points in three of four quarters. The Raptors made 14 of their 29 3-pointers and the 126 points scored were a season high. We knew they (Hawks) played last night, said Raptors head coach Dwane Casey. We knew we were going to come out and put the pedal to the metal. It paid dividends for us. Kyle Lowry had 14 points and dished out 13 assists, and is posting an average of 17.8 points, 8.2 assists and 5.6 rebounds over the last five games. Torontos bench scored 52 points and has posted 50 or more in three of the last four games. It is 11-0 this season when leading after three quarters. The Raptors are a sizzling 9-1 at Air Canada Centre and have won four in a row there. The nine home wins are the most in the NBA. The Raptors are second in the NBA with 108.0 points per game and are posting 106.4 ppg at home. After hosting the Mavericks, Toronto will head west for three games against the Los Angeles Lakers, Sacramento Kings and Utah Jazz. Toronto will wear its retro purple uniforms Friday for the second time as part of its 20th Anniversary Nights. The Mavericks will play their next four games on the road against Toronto, Philadelphia, Chicago and Milwaukee, and are 4-3 outside of Big D. Dallas lost two in a row following a six-game winning streak, but rebounded with Wednesdays 109-102 overtime victory over the New York Knicks. Knicks star Carmelo Anthony did not play and Dallas took advantage. Future Hall of Famer Dirk Nowitzki scored a season-best 30 points and former Knick Tyson Chandler was a monster with an NBA-high 25 rebounds (10 on offense) and 17 points. He was ready for this game. He had a major impact on it, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said of Chandler. Dallas was 7-3 last season when Nowitzki scored at least 30 points and leads the NBA with 109.3 ppg. The Mavs are second in the league with a 48.3 field goal percentage. The Mavs, who shot 40 percent from the floor, had a 56-53 rebounding advantage and posted 29 points off 22 New York turnovers. Dallas, which scored 50 points in the paint to New Yorks 24 points inside, used a 9-0 run and forced six Knicks turnovers to pull away in the extra session (14-7). Carlisle needs one win for 300 (299-193) with the Mavericks. Don Nelson and Dick Motta are the other Dallas coaches with 300 or more wins. Dallas lost both meetings with Toronto last season and is 14-6 in the past 20 games in this series. The Raptors are unbeaten in the last three encounters between the teams. The Mavs are winless in two straight and three of the past four trips to Canada. DeRozan averaged 27.5 points, 6.0 assists and 5.0 rebounds in two games against the Mavericks last season.

He earned his first caps for Sweden this month, featuring against Bahrain and Qatar.England duo Jonny May and Billy Vunipola are major doubts for Saturdays Twickenham Test against Fiji after they didnt take part in training on Thursday morning. Gloucester wing May, who scored a try in last Saturdays win over South Africa, has been working with Vunipola and Mike Brown in the indoor facilities at Pennyhill Park.Eddie Jones was due to name his team to face Fiji at 10am but the England coach has put that back to 2.30pm. Vunipola suffered an upper body injury against the Springboks, although he did return to training on Tuesday, while Brown is expected to be rested with Alex Goode slotting in at full-back. But Mays absence will force a further rejig to Englands back three. England vs Fiji November 19, 2016, 2:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass If Jonny May is out of this game it is a real shame, said Sky Sports commentator Miles Harrison.He has just returned internationally after nine months out with a knee injury and was so sharp. Hes a real asset and scored a good try against South Africa.Itll be a shame if he misses out but it will be somebody elses opportunity. Elliot Daly could switch to the wing with Jonathan Joseph partnering Owen Farrell in the centre Semesa Rokoduguni is expected to win his second cap against his native Fiji, two years after making his debut, while Elliot Daly could move from centre to the wing with Jonathan Joseph returning to the midfield. Six months half price Upgrade too Sky Sports to watch Man Utd v Arsenal on Saturday and get the first six months half price It will be a very special moment for Rokoduguni to return after that two-year gap, said Harrison.ddddddddddddHe made his one and only appearance against New Zealand and didnt disgrace himself by any stretch of the imagination, but just drifted out of the picture under Stuart Lancaster. Saracens full-back Alex Goode is hoping to make his first England appearance since February against Fiji This is a testament to his return to form and I think he has been the form winger in the Premiership this season. He is thoroughly deserving of his recall for Marland Yarde.As far as Elliot Daly is concerned, in the immediate aftermath of last Saturdays game Eddie Jones said they would look at him on the wing with Jonathan Joseph at 13.Thats something England would have been considering, even without the potential injury to Jonny May.Upgrade to Sky Sports now to watch England v Fiji and Man Utd v Arsenal this Saturday and get the first six months half price!
