The final 48 minutes of the Raptors pre-season might have fans adding a few more ticks in the win column as they try to predict what kind of year they’re in for.
Toronto dropped 74 first-half points on the Brooklyn Nets on the way to 123-107 win at the Barclays Centre, the last tune up before action begins in earnest next week.
The Raptors look set to launch their championship defence from the get-go, thanks in part to the return of Kyle Lowry, who started at point guard alongside Fred VanVleet, OG Anunoby, Pascal Siakam and Marc Gasol.
