The latest episode of Open Gym begins on January 11th, the day the Raptors played the Cavaliers on their only TNT televised game. TNT announcer Kevin Harlan was skeptical that the Raptors could defeat Cleveland without two of their starters, and in the third game in four nights. Well, Kevin, we all know how that turned out.
Norman Powell led the pre-game huddle, encouraging the team to bounce back from their one point loss to Miami two days prior. Norm also put up 14 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists, showing fans and teammates alike a glimmer of the Powell of Raptors past.
