After Action Report
In a track meet, the Raptors handled the Rockets 136-122. The Raptors got every break — every loose ball, every bounce. The Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss; Raptors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. Whispers of a Rockets locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Rockets · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
