The Toronto Raptors and Denver Nuggets gave the 500 fans in Scotiabank Arena a heck of a show tonight.
The two teams played a closely-contested 48 minutes that saw 16 lead changes and seven ties, and saw the teams’ two best players trade haymakers all night long.
Ultimately the game came down to the final shot — one where MVP Nikola Jokic made his presence felt, loud and clear.
Trailing 110-109 with less than 12 seconds to go, the Raptors turned to their favourite late game action — Fred VanVleet setting a screen for Pascal Siakam.
