After Action Report
The Raptors fended off the Rockets 111-103. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
