After Action Report
The Raptors pulled away from the Hornets 95-85. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
