After Action Report

The Raptors rolled past the Mavericks 128-89. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Raptors cashed in. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Raptors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Never a doubt in this one.

What tipped it

  • Mavericks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
