After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors pulled away from the Nets 100-88. The Nets couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. The Raptors played with the chip of a recent gutting loss; Nets' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition. 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 · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
