The Raptors overcame a 22-point deficit behind DeRozan’s big performance.
The guard ended with 45 points and a career high six three pointers (on nine attempts).
"I thought he was a young Ray Allen," Casey said about DeRozan's 4-of-4 first-quarter shooting from 3, as reported by ESPN. "That's what we need from him. It opens up the floor, especially on nights when we just didn't have it. We were playing in mud in the first half."
