After Action Report
The Raptors fended off the Cavaliers 92-84. Ugly basketball, but the Raptors did just enough. The Raptors came in with something to prove after a loss; Raptors' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Cavaliers' per-player workload didn't match the gameplan. Survive-and-advance type win.

- Cavaliers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
