After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors held off the Jazz 127-119. Raptors controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.
