After Action Report

The Raptors outlasted the Warriors 97-86. The Warriors couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. The Raptors couldn't shake the cold spell; Warriors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. The Warriors looked disjointed — chemistry issues linger. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
