After Action Report
The Raptors snuck past the Lakers 93-89. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. The Raptors are in a full-on tailspin; Raptors' outside barrage was a constant threat. The Lakers looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
