The Toronto Raptors and Golden State Warriors played a fast-paced, high-scoring game on Friday night, one that was a treat for fans of NBA offense. Unfortunately the Raptors ran out of steam down the stretch, and the Warriors used a barrage of threes to slam the door. The 129-117 loss moves Toronto to 1-1 on their current 7-game road trip.
Trailing 107-105 with six minutes to go, the Raptors let Klay Thompson get free in transition for a deep three that pushed Golden State’s lead to five. The Raptors never got closer than four the rest of the way, and Stephen Curry, Thompson, and Dante DiVincenzo each drained threes in the final three minutes to seal the deal.
