Hello and Welcome

Will Lou reacts to the Toronto Raptors' 107-100 win over the Utah Jazz. He breaks down the unorthodox tactics by the Jazz who played a one-man zone with Jusuf Nurkic in the paint, and the full-court trapping. He then discusses Scottie Barnes making the All-Star game along with former Raptors Norman Powell and Pascal Siakam, and Brandon Ingram not making the cut.

Three stars: RJ Barrett, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Scottie Barnes
Gerald Henderson award: Isaiah Collier
