Toronto Raptors Preview
The Toronto Raptors were blown out in Game One of the first-round of the playoffs. Having made a solid rise through the East to make a playoff appearance, however, Toronto has shown itself to be a firm side.
Many things went wrong for Toronto in their previous game. While Scottie Barnes and Gary Trent Jr. being injured are major hits the Raptors have taken, losing Thaddeus Young early in the game will also affect the side.
While Toronto saw solid contributions from Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby, the Raptors saw practically no scoring contributions from their bench rotation. Now that the two key players are listed as doubtful, the Raptors will need their bench to step up.

Philadelphia 76ers Preview
The Philadelphia 76ers enjoyed a solid performance to secure an early lead in the first-round series. With a blowout win in the books, the 76ers also saw Tyrese Maxey showcase his talents and potential on the big stage.
Recording 38 points on the night, Maxey made 76ers' history in his playoff debut. However, Maxey was not the only highlight of the night.
James Harden ran the offense to perfection as he notched 22 points and 14 assists for the night. Shooting a highly efficient 4-7 from beyond the arc, the 76ers were clicking at the right time.
Although Joel Embiid had a soft night of 19 points and 15 rebounds, the Cameroonian big man is due to have a dynamite performance sooner rather than later.
