SAN FRANCISCO–Jakob Poeltl was about a metre or two away from the basket on the baseline when the Raptors took a shot and between him and the ball was the long presence of Shaun Livingston of the Golden State Warriors.
It was impossible for Poeltl to get around the Warriors guard so all he did was reach above him, barely leaving the ground, to grab the errant shot, collect himself, and quickly threw up a little jump hook for a basket.
It was one impressive play on the offensive glass in a long list of them for the second-year Toronto centre who had one of his best games as a professional in what turned into a 117-112 loss at Oracle Arena.
