IT WAS OVER WHEN
DeMar DeRozan scored on a drive to the basket to put the Raptors ahead by six with 25.4 seconds remaining. The Heat did not go away easily, but the Raptors collected a 96-94 victory behind DeRozan’s 38-point night. The victory moved Toronto to 49 wins for the season with two games remaining in the regular season.
A START TO FORGET
Outside of DeMar DeRozan, the first quarter was not kind to either team. While DeRozan played the entire quarter and scored 16 points to help Toronto to a seven-point lead after one, the rest of the team struggled.
