Josh Primo shines in front of his hometown crowd as Spurs fall to Raptors

Maybe it was missing three key players, maybe it was the mostly empty arena, or maybe it was too much poutine and Tim Hortons coffee for the good guys.

Jakob Poeltl also notched a double-double with a team-high 19 points and 12 rebounds while Devin Vassell poured in 15 points in his second straight start.

Josh Primo looks like he belongs. And as others have mentioned numerous times, he does not shy away from the moment, which is a trait you cannot simply teach.
