A few seconds after the end of the game, the team's fans in the stands exploded with joy. The players looked extremely relieved.
Had it lost, the Michigan team would have experienced the worst consecutive losing streak (29) in NBA history. However, they share the worst losing streak (28) since the club's founding in 1946, tied with the Philadelphia 76ers (from 2014-2015 to 2015-2016).
The team's star, Cade Cunningham, played a strong game with 30 points and 12 assists. For Toronto, Pascal Siakam was very skilled in attack with 35 points.
