The Toronto Raptors finally had all of their top players in the lineup at the same time — and it was a beautiful thing. Sure, their opponent today was a shorthanded New York Knicks team, but as the saying goes, you can only play who’s in front of you — and the Raptors and their fans watching at home will gladly take the 120-105 win.
Regardless of the outcome, it was great to see the full lineup together. Pre-game, Nick Nurse spoke about the more challenging decision-making he’d have to make tonight, with all of his core players available for the first time all year.
