It has been quite something, this record-setting win streak the Raptors are on, for a lot of different reasons and in a lot of different ways.
It is a testament to their depth, their basketball intelligence, their resiliency — myriad factors, really — that they are at 14 in a row and chasing No. 15 at home on Monday night against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The raw numbers are staggering:
- In 14 games, the Raptors are first in the NBA in three-point shooting, making them at a 39.9 per cent clip.
- Their ball-hawking, swarming defence has created an average of 22.
