A night after a lacklustre, disappointing effort against the Detroit Pistons, the Toronto Raptors looked a like a completely different team — the team we’ve seen tantalizing glimpses of — against the defending champion Milwaukee Bucks.
Propelled by a tremendous effort on the defensive end, and led by a sensational all-around game from Pascal Siakam, the Raptors overcame a slow start, a short bench, foul trouble, and tired legs to beat the Bucks 103-96.
It might just be their signature win of the season thus far.
Siakam finished with 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for his second career triple double.
