Toronto Raptors looking to adjust to 76ers’ physicality heading into Game 2

PHILADELPHIA - In Game 1 of their first-round series with the Philadelphia 76ers, the Toronto Raptors got hit in the mouth and now it’s on them to make adjustments and fight back in Game 2 Monday night.

The Raptors took all sorts of blows in Saturday’s 131-111 loss.

There was not too much brotherly love on display in Philadelphia.

From centre Khem Birch’s face absorbing 76ers centre Joel Embiid’s elbow, to veteran forward Thaddeus Young spraining his thumb, to rookie Scottie Barnes injuring his left ankle after Embiid stepped on it, the Raptors got beat up.
