After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors survived the Hornets 123-118. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. Raptors' defenders refused to give up clean looks; Hornets' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Hornets · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
