After Action Report
The Celtics snuck past the Raptors 95-94. Ugly basketball, but the Celtics did just enough. Celtics' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Early returns: the Celtics per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
