After Action Report

The Raptors squeaked past the Grizzlies 127-126. Raptors' scorers couldn't be contained. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles.

What tipped it

  • Grizzlies · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • 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.
