Kawhi Spoils Caleb Wilson's Debut, Box Score Player Stats & Highlights from Bulls vs. Raptors

Kawhi Leonard's return to Toronto couldn't have gone any better as the Raptors took down the visiting Chicago Bulls 135-92 on Wednesday evening in both teams' 2026-27 regular season debuts.

Here's a look at notable box score stats for Toronto, which was a 9.5-point favorite, per FanDuel Sportsbook.

Raptors	MIN	PTS	FG (3 PT)	FT	REB	AST/TO	STL/BLK
F Kawhi Leonard	24	23	5-17 (2-6)	11-11	6	2/0	4/1
F Scottie Barnes	26	23	8-19 (1-3)	6-6	6	5/1	0/0
G Immanuel Quickley	28	23	6-13 (4-9)	7-8	4	7/0	2/0
G RJ Barrett	26	20	8-14 (0-3)	4-7	4	3/1	0/0

The Raptors led 43-23 after the first quarter, 69-44 at halftime and 103-71 after the third quarter. Toronto kept its foot on the gas, though, and outscored Chicago 32-21 in the fourth.

Toronto acquired Leonard, who led Toronto to its lone NBA championship in 2019 before leaving in free agency for the Los Angeles Clippers, back from L.A. via trade this summer. So far, so good for Leonard's return, as he might be the missing piece Toronto needs to make a deep playoff run.

The quartet of Leonard, Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley and RJ Barrett combined for 89 points, 20 rebounds, 17 assists and six steals despite playing an average of 26 minutes. Quickley ended up finishing plus-38.

Chicago is a young and rebuilding team that will have better basketball waiting someday. However, this was a very difficult opening game for head coach Tiago Splitter's group.

Here's a look at Chicago's top four scorers, including rookie forward Caleb Wilson, the No. 4 overall pick in the draft.

Bulls	MIN	PTS	FG (3 PT)	FT	REB	AST/TO	STL/BLK
F Matas Buzelis	25	17	2-8 (0-4)	13-16	6	0/3	0/2
F Caleb Wilson	32	16	7-21 (1-8)	1-2	4	0/9	3/1
F Jalen Smith	19	15	5-10 (0-3)	5-6	8	1/0	0/1
G Norman Powell	22	15	3-9 (2-6)	7-11	5	1/1	1/0

The Bulls committed 27 turnovers and shot just 4-of-36 from three (11 percent). Overall, Chicago made only 32 percent of its field goals. Josh Giddey had three more turnovers (five) than points (two) and shot just 1-of-10.

Bulls rookie forward Caleb Wilson had a tough debut, committing nine turnovers (no assists). The Raptors outscored the Bulls by 45 points with him on the floor. Wilson also shot just 7-of-21 and made only 1-of-8 threes.

There were a few bright spots. For starters, Wilson amassed three steals and a block, and he showcased the offensive talents that can make him a star someday.

Both teams will play road games on Friday. Toronto will visit the Washington Wizards, and Chicago will take on the Milwaukee Bucks. Washington beat Milwaukee 128-116 on Wednesday behind a 34-point, 12-rebound effort from big man Anthony Davis.
