Gordon, Bulls hope for better results on road, face Raptors

TORONTO (Ticker) -- The Chicago Bulls have been nearly unbeatable this season in the Windy City. The road, however, has been a different story.

The Bulls aim to improve their road record Friday when they visit the surprising Toronto Raptors.

Chicago has righted its early-season struggles, winning 14-of-17. But the Bulls have lost two straight road games and are just 4-10 away from home in this season.

Ben Gordon scored a season-high 40 points in a 109-103 home victory over the defending champion Miami Heat on Wednesday.

But on Friday, the Bulls might be without forward Luol Deng, who injured his wrist on a layup attempt after being taken down by James Posey. It was the same appendage the third-year forward had surgery on during the 2004-05 season.

The Raptors continue to lead the Eastern Conference's Atlantic Division despite a losing record. However they improved to 8-3 at Air Canada Centre with a 100-97 victory over Minnesota on Wednesday.

T.J. Ford scored a season-high 28 points and Anthony Parker added 19 for Toronto, which continues to play without injured star forward Chris Bosh.
