19 h. ago Toronto Raptors just ended LeBron James' most unbreakable NBA streak

If you were lucky enough to be in attendance for the Toronto Raptors game against the Los Angeles Lakers game on Thursday night, it turns out that you were witnessing NBA history.Not only was it potentially LeBron James’ last-ever game playing at Scotiabank Arena, but it was actually historic for another reason for the four-time NBA MVP and NBA’s all-time leading scorer.James was held to just eight points on the night, one of the rarest feats of his legendary career.The last time James didn’t score at least 10 points in a regular season game was nearly 19 years ago – against the Milwaukee Bucks on January 5, 2007.That’s a streak of 1,297 games in a row, 431 more than Michael Jordan’s mark of 866, which sits second in NBA history.But the streak ended for a pretty decent reason for the Lakers’ side of things – James wasn’t exactly having his best shooting night, and opted to pass the ball to teammate Rui Hachimura on an eventual bu...

What do you do when you've experienced a condition that impacts your skin? What if that condition is so bad, you change how you interact with your friends and family? If you're one of the millions of Canadians who deal with psoriasis, then you know that diagnosis can come with a lot of unanswered questions. To get a better understanding of th condition, we spoke with Dr. Fiona Lovegrove, MD, PhD, FRCPC, Certified Dermatologist, who has a keen interest in skin diseases.The what's what on psoriasisDr. Lovegrove describes psoriasis as an immune-mediated inflammatory condition that impacts the skin.

This appears as "red, raised, scaly spots," which often impacts people on the knees, scalp, hands, feet, and face but can appear anywhere on the body.Other symptoms can include itchy and painful skin,...

55 h. ago Toronto Raptors still not getting much respect in NBA title odds

The Toronto Raptors, mostly, have been blowing their preseason predictions out of the water.Sitting at 15-7 and second in the NBA's Eastern Conference, the Raptors are looking well on their way to a return to the playoffs for the first time since 2022.But despite hitting the ground running through the quarter mark of the season, they haven't exactly found themselves getting all that much respect from the NBA oddsmakers.Before the season began, the Raptors had +10000 odds to win the NBA title, which ranked them tied for 18th in the NBA.And while the team's hot streak has bumped them up to +8000 title odds, oddsmakers still don't exactly see them among the crop of the NBA.Toronto's odds compared to other teams still sit in the exact same spot, as they're still 18th among the league's 30 teams.Topping the list are a series of unsurprising names, with last year's champions in the Oklahoma City Thunder looking like clear favourites to repeat, given their 2...
