After Action Report
The Pistons squeaked past the Raptors 133-131 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Pistons cashed in. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. The Pistons locker room is humming, and it showed.
What tipped it
- Pistons · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
