The Toronto Raptors made history Thursday night, conquering the Golden State Warriors and winning the franchise’s first-ever NBA championship.
The Raptors surged past Golden State in the final few minutes of the game, ending the neck-and-neck matchup at 114-110.
The historic victory marks the first time that a team outside the U.S. takes home the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy. It’s also the first title for a Canadian team in North American professional sports since the Toronto Blue Jays won the World Series in 1993.
