The Toronto Raptors grabbed a 121-108 win over the Chicago Bulls in the NBA In-Season Tournament on Friday night, despite already being eliminated from moving on.

They’re forever linked. Partners for runs to the NBA Finals, including a team performance in 2014 that registers in the annals of basketball lore…to recent losing streaks at the start of seasons that come with tons of excitement.

HOUSTON – Shortly after the announcement of guard Fred VanVleet’s max three-year contract worth $130 million with the Houston Rockets, most fans were perplexed.

The Toronto Raptors were in the trade market for Damian Lillard when he requested a trade from the Portland Trail Blazers this summer, but they weren’t able to bring him in.

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes dropped a helpful hint when asked how he would explain the NBA In-Season Tournament rules, according to Michael Grange of Sportsnet.
