Work, plenty of it, is the secret to the 905s’ success

Raptors' D-League affiliate may outlast its opponents all the way to a championship.

Raptors 905 guard Brady Heslip says his team's regular-season success came from a team-first approach. "We don't have any selfish people, we share the ball."

It’s the last week of a wildly successful D-League regular season, a lazy midweek afternoon with only two games left before the playoffs begin. And the Raptors 905 are working. Hard.

It’s their second practice of the day — after a morning session of skill development — and the workout at Mississauga’s Hershey Centre Sports Zone goes on for one hour, two, three, almost four.
