After Action Report
In a track meet, the Raptors shocked the Warriors 114-100. The tempo dragged the Warriors into a rhythm they couldn't survive. The Raptors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Warriors locker-room rift aren't helping. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. An upset for the books.

- Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
- Warriors · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Raptors · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
