EDGE Analysis
VanVleet was a key source of offense on the second unit once again, posting double-digit scoring for the fifth time in seven games. The second-year guard's three-pointer with 3:52 remaining helped cut the Warriors' lead to 116-115, bringing the Raptors to the precipice of overcoming what had been a 27-point deficit at one point. VanVleet has had the hot hand from the field over the last two games, shooting 65.0 percent (13-for-20) -- including 64.3 percent (9-for-14) -- during those contests. While his minutes can still often be in the teens, VanVleet is starting to slowly gain some traction as a source of scoring, three-pointers and shooting percentage in deeper formats.
