After Action Report

In Toronto, the Raptors downed the Bucks 113-100. The better team simply showed up tonight. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Raptors per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Raptors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Raptors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • 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.
