WASHINGTON — \u2014 Immanuel Quickley<\/a> had 27 points and 11 assists to lift the Toronto Raptors<\/a> to a 134-125 victory over the Washington Wizards<\/a> on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Brandon Ingram<\/a> added 24 points for the Raptors, who rebounded from back-to-back home losses to Western Conference contenders Oklahoma and San Antonio earlier in the week. Toronto is in fifth place in the East, now three games clear of the play-in group.<\/p>\n

Will Riley<\/a> scored 19 points for Washington, which lost its fourth straight game after beating Indiana twice in a row coming out of the All-Star break.<\/p>\n

The Wizards remain without newly acquired Anthony Davis<\/a> (finger) and Trae Young<\/a> (knee, quad), and 7-footer Alex Sarr<\/a> (hamstring) didn’t play either. Collin Murray-Boyles<\/a> (thumb) did not play for Toronto.<\/p>\n

Washington led by three in the middle of the third quarter before an 11-2 Toronto run capped by Ingram’s 3-pointer. The Raptors were up 98-92 after three and pushed the lead into double digits early in the fourth.<\/p>\n

All five Toronto starters scored at least 18 points. RJ Barrett<\/a> contributed 21, and Scottie Barnes<\/a> scored 18 and Jakob Poeltl<\/a> had 18 with 10 rebounds.<\/p>\n

Bilal Coulibaly<\/a> and Kyshawn George<\/a> scored 14 points each for the Wizards. Washington shot 16 of 34 from 3-point range, but Toronto countered by going 42 of 63 inside the arc.<\/p>\n

Washington signed former Maryland standout Julian Reese to a two-way contract earlier Saturday. He was not active.<\/p>\n

The Wizards lost despite a 64-26 advantage in bench scoring.<\/p>\n
