Lots of big moments for Gary Trent Jr. He ties DeMar DeRozan with five straight games of 30+ points. He also came to media room with a Prada woolen hoodie and — sadly not pictured — a red Prada basketball. The ultimate accessory when you’re on fire. pic.twitter.com/cf09n7TsaR10:31 PM

Gary Trent Jr. 30-point games
Last 5 games: 5
1st 174 career games: 4
That’s now tied with DeMar DeRozan for the most consecutive 30-point games in Raptors history. – 10:23 PM

With all these consecutive 30+ point performances, Gary Trent is putting up Joel Embiid-like numbers. – 10:01 PM

If your Dad is as big as Gary Trent Jr. Dad, you can probably feel comfortably talking trash to PJ Tucker. Otherwise, maybe not advisable. – 9:42 PM

Gary Trent Jr. has scored 30+ points in 5 straight games, matching the longest streak in Raptors franchise history (initially set by DeMar DeRozan in 2016). – 9:39 PM

Raptors’ defensive energy focus just hasn’t been there. Heat’s FG% has come down slightly, but they’re shooting 58%. The still red-hot Gary Trent is keeping ’em in it. He’s got 17 points on 7-12 FG. Everybody else shooting 41%. Miami by 12 at the half. – 8:34 PM

Talking some of the 2020 class going off last night, Isaiah Jackson busting out, Gary Trent Jr. rolling, lots of ball-handlers missing Monday’s action, some letdowns, and more in NBA 3 Ball.

The Raptors hoped this is the version of Gary Trent Jr. they were signing in the off-season and lately the rising star at shooting guard has erased all doubt: https://t.co/KoMgOltqyL pic.twitter.com/9CduaDXWc98:26 AM
