It's March 1st. Here's your NBA news in two minutes, subscribe to stay locked in all season. The Toronto Raptors pulled out a win against the Washington Wizards in a game that turned out much tighter than expected. They overcame an early deficit to secure the victory, showing resilience on both ends of the court. The team started slow, falling behind by double digits in the first quarter as the Wizards shot well from three and attacked Elaine easily. But once the Raptors' defense tightened up, they began chipping away at the lead. Players like Jakopu Ingram stressed the need to respect every opponent and bring the same energy every night. At halftime, Coach Darko Rajakovic skipped the film session, focusing instead on simple fixes like stopping straight drives and threes. In the second half, the offense exploded for 73 points over the final two quarters, which made all the difference. If they keep that intensity, they could rack up wins in most of their remaining 22 games. The Raptors are back in action Tuesday night against the New York Knicks.
