The Toronto Raptors turned up the defensive pressure and tightened their grip on first place in the Eastern Conference. DeMar DeRozan scored 16 points, Fred VanVleet and Serge Ibaka each had 15 and the Raptors moved closer to clinching the top seed in the East by beating the Boston Celtics 96-78 on Wednesday night. ''We had to rely on our defense tonight,'' DeRozan said.
