The Raptors snuck past the Hawks 126-124 in overtime. The Hawks had no answer for the variance gods tonight. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Raptors · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
