A quick update from last night’s preview against the Miami Heat — Gary Trent Jr. is still on fire. Scorching. Blazing. Fuel-fed hot. With 5 straight games of 30+ points per game under his — probably — haute couture belt, the Toronto Raptors have found a bevy of ways to muster their strength behind his out-of-this-world-play and capitalize by going 4-1 over that stretch.
Tonight, the Raptors square off against the top-seeded team in the East in the Chicago Bulls, who are somehow staying afloat despite missing four of their best defenders.
