After Action Report

The Hawks squeaked past the Raptors 95-92. Ugly basketball, but the Hawks did just enough. The Hawks owned the glass, generating extra possessions; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Raptors. Whispers of a Raptors locker-room rift aren't helping. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

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