With two key pieces sitting out, the Raptors settled in on defense to get a win against the Bucks.
On short rest after a heartbreaking loss to the Bulls and down two starters, the Toronto Raptors found their game and revived their defense tonight in a 107-89 drubbing of the Milwaukee Bucks. To sum it up in a few words: it was a ridiculously impressive outing.
With the pre-game announcement that Jonas Valanciunas would sit with a left hand contusion and DeMar DeRozan would get a night off for rest, Dwane Casey rolled out an unsexy starting lineup of Kyle Lowry, Norman Powell, James Johnson, Luis Scola and Bismack Biyombo.
