Description: BOS Vs TOR Dream11 Team Overview, Match Centre And Probable Playing 5: Raptors just about ensure their relevance in the series after reducing the deficit to 2-1 in game 3

Game 3’s win was hardly one which the Raptors will be cherishing but the side still managed to rejoice in the result given that it brought them back in the series. Struggling to catch up with Boston Celtics who were threatening to run away with the semi-finals, the Raptors showed incredible strength, resistance and determination to bring the deficit down to 2-1.
Far from a convincing result, the 104-103 win for the Raptors in game 3 saw the side needing to dwell deep into their pool of resources. At the end, the side just about managed to stumble its way through to a much needed win as it protected its rim in the final moments to accrue its first win of the semi-finals.
It’s a result the side will be looking to further build on when it steps out for game 4 of the series. Elsewhere, Boston Celtics will hardly be ruing their defeat the last time around with the side pushing the Raptors all the way, a performance which saw them continue to exert their might over their opponents.

Dream 11 Picks
Point Guard
Everything has rested on this duo for the Raptors in the semi-finals and the two point guards haven’t let the side down in the slightest. It sees us retain this partnership in our setup with the two names bringing a culture of excellence with them into our ambit.
We begin with the pick of Kyle Lowry after he emerged as his side’s game winner in game 3. With 31 points, 8 assists and 6 rebounds, he doled out a quirky display, one which propelled his side towards a one point win.
Partnering him as ever will be Fred VanVleet who pulled off an equally quiessential 25 point, 6 assist and 3 rebound display on the day.
Shooting Guard
Marcus Smart’s form in the semi-finals has been a pleasant surprise to Boston Celtics. He has managed to layup open triples with a high success rate, a skill set which saw him deliver 11 points, 4 assists and 5 rebounds the last time around.
Small Forward
At a time when the Raptors have struggled to accrue points in the paint, OG Anunoby has offered side much needed leeway. He pulled off a stunning 12-10 double-double the last time around, one which saw him latch onto the boards to turnover possession for his side.
Power Forward
Our cheapest pick for the forthcoming affair, Robert Williams makes for a must have pick today. He’s persistently emerged as a force to be reckoned with under the post with his ability to placate attacks seeing him pull off 7 rebounds in game 3.
Centre
Slotting in next to him for this one will be the versatile Daniel Theis. Not only has he converted points in the paint but pulled off crucial second chance points as well by pulling off attacking rebounds.
Serge Ibaka endured a blip in form in game 3 but that doesn’t dissuade us from opting for his services for the day’s scrimmage. One of the most imperious names, the centre has been largely flawless this season with his ability to guard his side’s paint helping the club thrive.
Marc Gasol ensured that Ibaka’s slump in form didn’t effect his side the last time around. He compensated for Ibaka’s dip with 10 points and 6 rebounds, a well versed display which sees him be our pick for the clash.
Star Player
His game winning showing the last time around sees Lowry be our star player while Fred is the pro player.
