With a 122-96 victory over the RGV Vipers in a winner-take-all Game 3, Raptors 905 is the NBA D-League champion in just its second season as the Toronto Raptors’ minor-league affiliate.
The win caps a historic season for first-year head coach Jerry Stackhouse and the 905, who finish the season with the second-most wins in league history at 45-12.
The 905 received a boost from The Six, as three Raptors — forwards Bruno Caboclo and Pascal Siakam and guard Fred VanVleet — joined the affiliate club on their Finals run. Siakam earned MVP honors after averaging 23.0 points and 9.0 rebounds.
