The Toronto Raptors (35-24) and New York Knicks (24-35) face off in an Atlantic Division matchup on Monday night. Here’s how you can watch the game online.

As two stalwarts of the Eastern Conference’s Atlantic Division who find themselves in very different places at the moment, the Toronto Raptors and New York Knicks will face off at 7.00 p.m. ET on Monday night in Madison Square Garden

This game will be available to stream nationally for those with subscriptions to NBA League Pass, local blackout permitting. For those based north of the border and more specifically in the Toronto area, the game will be shown live on TSN1/3/4. As is the usual for Knicks games, MSG will carry the action for those in the New York area too.

The Raptors fly into the Big Apple for the second game of a back-to-back, and should do so brimming with confidence following a six-point win over the Portland Trail Blazers. With that win, Toronto have now won three straight and both of their games since the All-Star Break. The early signs suggest the trade deadline additions of Serge Ibaka and P.J. Tucker have helped them break out of a recent rut, and with a record of 35-24 they remain well-positioned for home court advantage in the playoffs.

The Knicks will have the advantage of an extra night’s rest and no travel coming into this home time, having last played on Saturday when they overcame the 76ers in nearby Philadelphia by just a single point. Against a team of Toronto’s caliber, this New York team would seem set to be up against it, though. Particularly as young star Kristaps Porzingis could potentially miss the game due to an ankle injury. The Knicks have fallen a long away from their pre-season superteam aspirations, and with a record of 24-35 their post-season chances have all but sailed already.

This will be the third meeting between the two teams this season, and the Raptors currently lead the season series 2-0 thanks to a pair of very comfortable wins.
