Raptors star Chris Bosh sustains facial injury, Toronto loses 113-101 to Cavaliers

Raptors lose game to Cavs, Bosh to injury

CLEVELAND — Flattened by an inadvertent elbow to the face, Toronto All-Star forward Chris Bosh was sent to the hospital for tests Tuesday night as the Raptors’ playoff hopes took a blow with a 113-101 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have won 11 straight at home.

Bosh was accidentally struck by Cleveland’s Antawn Jamison in the first three minutes. Bosh, who had blood dripping from his nose and mouth area as he was assisted from the floor, was taken to the Cleveland Clinic for a CT scan and further treatment and evaluation.

The Raptors had no immediate update on his condition.

Jamison scored 20 points — 12 in the third when the Cavs opened a double-digit lead — and Anthony Parker had a season-high 18.
