IT WAS OVER WHEN

Kyle Lowry drilled a 21-foot step back jumper with 4.3 seconds remaining to break a tie and put the Raptors ahead by two. E’twain Moore missed a three-pointer with 1.9 seconds remaining and the Raptors collected a hard-fought 108-106 victory over the New Orleans Pelicans in overtime.

During Dwane Casey’s pre-game media availability he announced that the team expects to be without DeMar DeRozan for the next two games. That meant DeRozan would sit for Tuesday’s game against the Pelicans as well as Wednesday’s back-to-back against the Boston Celtics.
