After Action Report
In Toronto, the Raptors snuck past the Cavaliers 101-97. The Cavaliers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Raptors. The Raptors looked unstoppable — pure Buzzsaw mode; Raptors' defenders refused to give up clean looks. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. The Raptors rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Buzzsaw An 8+ game winning streak — they cannot be stopped (until the league catches up).
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Cavaliers · Heartbreak A gutting last-second loss — revenge is on the menu.
