Proud of @UNBCBasketball‘s Tyrell Laing for taking part in @USPORTSca‘s conversation on Black History Month. Talking to @SavyHamilton, Tyrell was incredible, including this response to the question of why he spoke up in his #BLM video. Full conversation: https://t.co/nqp2BK7kdJ pic.twitter.com/EuTiFR16Vp

NBA:
Toronto Raptors 124 Milwaukee Bucks 113
The same teams meet again Thursday in Milwaukee. The (13-15) Raptors are tied for 7th in the Eastern Conference. The (16-12) Bucks are 3rd. Toronto will also play Friday in Minnesota to conclude a 3-game road trip. Raptors guard Kyle Lowry suffered an ankle injury and left the game in the 3rd quarter and did not return.
The Raptors had success with a small-ball lineup against the Bucks, but an injury to Kyle Lowry could limit how effective that strategy will be moving forward. (@michaelgrange)https://t.co/a4IymOpQMP
