After Action Report
The Celtics upended the Raptors 126-119 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Celtics cashed in. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors ride keeps rolling — they're catching fire. Celtics' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.
What tipped it
- Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Raptors · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
- Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
