The Toronto Raptors defeated the Golden State Warriors in Canada, thanks to an impressive fourth-quarter performance from Chris Boucher, snapping their five-game losing streak.

After the game, Raptors head coach Darko Rajaković shared his thoughts on Steph Curry, who scored a game-high 26 points. However, Curry was held to just five points on three shots in the final 12 minutes as Toronto found a way to neutralize him.

“I’ve been coaching against him for a long, long time. I can’t wait for him to retire. I’m going to get drunk that night, I promise you that,” said Rajaković, while also mentioning that “it’s a privilege for all of us to live in an era” where Curry plays the game of basketball.

The Serbian tactician also praised his team’s center, Austrian Jakob Poeltl.

I cannot praise enough how much small stuff Jak does for us. The Warriors scored 26 points in the paint, and a big part of that is Jakob’s defense,” Rajaković concluded.

The Raptors are now 9-31 in Rajaković’s second season at the helm as they continue navigating through a rebuilding process.
