(Sports Network) - The Toronto Raptors have hit a snag and will try to right the ship when they open a two-game homestand tonight versus the Milwaukee Bucks at the Air Canada Centre.
The Raptors will also welcome the New Jersey Nets to town, and are 22-16 as the host this season. They have lost two in a row at home.
Toronto has dropped three straight overall, including Saturday's 99-90 loss to the Nets at the Izod Center. Rasho Nesterovic finished with 22 points and 14 rebounds for the Raptors, who had already clinched a spot in the postseason, but failed to pick up ground in the East.
The Raptors are seventh in the conference standings, and sit two games behind Washington for the fifth spot and a game back of No. 6 Philadelphia.
Milwaukee has dropped three in a row, and will open a two-game road trip on Wednesday against Toronto and Boston. The Bucks are 7-31 as the visitor this season, and have lost nine of 10 and 16 of their last 18 road games.
In Tuesday's 107-104 overtime setback versus the Boston Celtics at the Bradley Center, Michael Redd scored 25 points and Andrew Bogut recorded his fifth straight double-double with 15 points and 15 rebounds. Desmond Mason ended with 14 points in defeat.
Bucks guard Maurice Williams is questionable against Toronto with an abdominal strain.
The 2007-08 season series between Milwaukee and Toronto is tied at a game apiece. The Raptors have won two of three and four of the last six matchups with the Bucks, who are 10-3 in their last 13 games at the Air Canada Centre.
