"Mark it down, Raptors Nation. That's four straight wins once again for the boys up north. They just squeezed past a respectfully tough Charlotte Hornets squad on November 17, where Toronto made some crucial defensive plays down the stretch to secure the 110-108 victory. The Raptors improve to a 9-5 record in the Eastern Conference, which places them in a very desirable position as the third seed, and just three games out from the first seed."
"But the game was just about as gritty and tight-knit as it gets. Charlotte didn't make it easy for the Raptors at all, and Toronto struggled early with turnovers. Still, their flow on offense and defensive intensity held strong as the game came down to the wire. Of course, the star of the night had to be Brandon Ingram, with equal praise going to defensive maestro Scottie Barnes."
