After Action Report

The Raptors held off the Celtics 105-96. The Celtics couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

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.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
