Today's Mavericks vs Raptors live stream doesn't make for pretty reading from a Toronto perspective. However, if there's a time to play Dallas, it's now. The Mavs have been dragged all around the country not once but twice over the past couple of weeks — and you can watch it from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free!

If all that time on the road is taking its toll, the Mavericks aren't showing it quite yet. They've won nine of their last 10, and that's without Luka Doncic or Klay Thompson hitting their stride. Instead, Kyrie Irving and Spencer Dinwiddie have picked up the slack, though Thompson's 3-point prowess could come in handy at the Scotiabank Arena.
Whether it's a deliberate tactic or a deficiency, Darko Rajakovic's men are taking a far higher percentage of their shots from inside the paint than any other team. With a 7-15 record, clearly it's not working, but this was always going to be a rebuilding season for the Raptors, and several of their defeats have been extremely tight. The form of Scottie Barnes, however, is a major plus point.
Here's how to watch Mavericks vs Raptors live streams online and from anywhere in the world.

How to watch Mavericks vs Raptors from anywhere
Away from home at the moment and blocked from watching the game on your usual subscription? You can still tune in via a virtual private network, or VPN. A VPN makes it appear like you're surfing the web from your home, allowing you to access the streaming services you already pay for. It's legal and easy to do.
We've tested many different VPN services and our favorite is NordVPN; it offers superb speeds, excellent customer service and a no-questions-asked 30-day money-back guarantee, so you can try it out first to see if it's right for you. But you've got other VPN options too, so check out our full list of the best VPN services.
Using a VPN is incredibly simple.
1. Install the VPN of your choice. As we've said, NordVPN is our favorite.
2. Choose the location you wish to connect to in the VPN app. For instance if you're away in the U.S. and want to view your usual German service, you'd select Germany from the list.
3. Sit back and enjoy the action. Head to Joyn and watch the Mavericks vs Raptors live stream.
