In the final game before the trade deadline, the Toronto Raptors closed out their road trip against the Charlotte Hornets with a narrow win. It’s hard to take too much from a matchup like this, with Charlotte having their own struggles throughout the year, especially given the 8-game losing streak they entered the game with. There were flashes of good ball movement from the Raptors and superb shooting from Gary Trent Jr. as he continues a hot streak that has been going since early January. Another encouraging takeaway from this matchup was the stellar passing by RJ Barrett, who continues to exceed expectations with his play since arriving a little over a month ago.
