First Quarter


The Raptors set the tone early in the first quarter by scoring an impressive 37 points compared to the Nets' 27. Scottie Barnes led from the front for Jurassic Park with his dynamic playmaking and defensive prowess. His ability to drive into the paint created numerous opportunities for his teammates.


Second Quarter


In the second quarter, RJ Barrett showcased his shooting skills by contributing significantly to Toronto's tally of 35 points. The North maintained their momentum as they continued to outpace Brooklyn's defense through fast breaks and quick transitions.


Third Quarter


Despite a slight dip in performance during the third quarter where they scored only 25 points, Toronto's defensive efforts were commendable. Jakob Poeltl stood tall under the rim with crucial blocks that thwarted several attempts by Borough players trying to close in on their lead.


Fourth Quarter


As both teams entered into what would be a decisive fourth quarter, it was evident that fatigue had set in; however, Gradey Dick’s energy off-the-bench provided much-needed support for Raptors’ offense which managed another crucial run securing them victory over visiting opponents who managed only one more point than previous quarters combined (28).


The final whistle reaction from fans echoed throughout Scotiabank Arena as they celebrated this hard-fought triumph over formidable adversaries like Michael Porter Jr., whose efforts fell short despite leading all scorers across both sides tonight!
