After Action Report

In Atlanta, the Raptors squeaked past the Hawks 96-94. The Raptors won despite a cold shooting night — grit beat polish. Raptors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Raptors answered the bell with a bounce-back effort. The Raptors bench chemistry carried them. The Hawks rotation plan worked against them — wrong guys, wrong night. Style points be damned.

What tipped it

  • Hawks · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Hawks · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Hawks · 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 · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
  • Raptors · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
