After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors shocked the Lakers 130-112. The tempo dragged the Lakers into a rhythm they couldn't survive. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; fresh off a statement win, the Raptors stayed locked in. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. On paper this one shouldn't have been close — basketball had other ideas.
