The Big Stories of 2019: Bianca Andreescu vs. The Raptors

December 16, 2019
|
Jordan Heath-Rawlings

On Jan. 1, the Toronto Raptors were a team that always folded in the face of playoff adversity, and Bianca Andreescu was an 18-year-old tennis hopeful ranked well outside the top 100 in the world. Now? Well, you know by now.

GUEST: Donnovan Bennet, Sportsnet
