    The Toronto Raptors are going to the NBA finals

    The Toronto Raptors are going to the NBA finals


    The Raptors have beaten the Milwaukee Bucks 100-94 in game six of their Eastern Conference playoffs, to win the series 4-2.

    The Raptors were down by 15 points at one stage and forward Kawhi Leonard says they still felt they were in the game.



    The result means Toronto have advanced to the finals for the first time, where they'll meet the defending champion Golden State Warriors.
