After Action Report
The Raptors fended off the Clippers 96-87. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Clippers couldn't shake the cold spell. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. 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.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
- Clippers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
- Clippers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
