After Action Report
The Raptors squeaked past the Lakers 109-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors bent the defense out of shape from deep. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
