After Action Report

In Toronto, the Raptors squeaked past the Suns 111-109. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. Raptors' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Raptors carried the confidence of a hot streak right into this one. The Raptors locker room is humming, and it showed. Raptors' rotation plan looked deliberate, and the right guys made the most of their roles. Survive-and-advance type win.

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.
  • Suns · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
