Dwane Casey: 'Toronto Raptors showed mental toughness'

Dwane Casey has said that the Toronto Raptors showed "mental toughness" in their win over the Brooklyn Nets last night.

The Canadian side finished the game strongly for a 96-80 win, ending the Nets' five-game winning streak.

The coach told reporters: "Our guys showed mental toughness and won a slug-out game, which I don't know if we could have won a few months ago.

"It's a testament to our guys' mental growth and mental toughness to win a game like that."

The Raptors host the Milwaukee Bucks tomorrow night.
