Watch Golden State Warriors Vs. Toronto Raptors Live Stream: Game 5, Start Time — Can Warriors Survive?


In the 2016 NBA Finals, the Golden State Warriors became only the 11th team in NBA playoff history to blow three games to one lead in a seven-game playoff series. Even with their three NBA titles in the last four seasons, the Warriors have never lived down the stigma of letting that lead over the Cleveland Cavaliers get away, as NBC Sports reports. But the Warriors finally have a chance at redemption, because now they are the team that must recover from a 3-1 deficit if they want two win back-to-back titles, after the Toronto Raptors took command of the series with a comprehensive 13-point win in Game 4, and now try to close out the series in the game that will live stream from Canada.

The action gets underway at 9 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time, 6 p.m. Pacific, and 8 p.m. Central at the 19,800-seat Scotiabank Arena in Toronto, Ontario, Canada, on Monday, June 10.

If the Raptors succeed in bringing the NBA championship trophy to Canada for the first time in the league’s history, they will trace the victory to one move, made back on July 18, 2018. That, of course, came when the Raptors traded their most iconic player, DeMar DeRozan, to the San Antonio Spurs and in return received All-Star forward Kawhi Leonard, as NBA.com reported.

Leonard has done nothing for the team but dominate the Raptors’ playoff run, almost single-handedly propelling the Raptors to within one win of the NBA championship, scoring 30-plus points in 14 playoff games along the way, per Basketball Reference.

But the Warriors may have a secret weapon to stop the Raptors from putting an end to their dynasty, with superstar Kevin Durant cleared to practice and possibly be ready to take the court for Game 5 on Monday night, according to an NBA.com report.

Kawhi Leonard of the Toronto Raptors goes for his 15th 30-plus point game of the playoffs.
