The Toronto Raptors are one win away from the first NBA Championship in franchise history. But don't tell the players that.

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard speaks at a news conference after Game 4 of basketball's NBA Finals against the Golden State Warriors in Oakland, Calif., Friday, June 7, 2019. Last Updated Sunday, June 9, 2019 5:06PM EDT

The Raptors can clinch the title with a victory over two-time defending champion Golden State on Monday at Scotiabank Arena. It would cap an historic post-season run that has captured Canada's collective imagination and whipped Raptors fans into a frenzy."We didn't do nothing yet. We haven't done anything," said Lowry, who's making his Finals debut in his 13th season in the league. "We still got to get one more win. It's the first to four.

Leonard has been the team's Zen master after missing all but nine games last season with San Antonio. In the moments the Raptors have trailed this post-season, the 27-year-old has settled them down. He's reminded them to enjoy the moment. "We've just kind of made that the forefront of our team. I'm here playing basketball for a living. I'm healthy, my kids are healthy. Life's pretty good."
