The Toronto Raptors were part of NBA history once again. The team’s 112-106 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday featured three NBA players from Montreal in the starting lineup for the first time ever. Chris Boucher and Khem Birch started for the Raptors, while Lu Dort started for the Thunder in the game.
And to be clear; The Montrealers didn’t just start in Sunday’s game, they starred in it, too.
Boucher led the way with a 31-point, 12-rebound double-double where he set a career-high for threes made in a game, shooting 6-for-9 from beyond the arc, while Dort led the Thunder with 29 points on 9-for-15 shooting.
