The Toronto Raptors were the most popular basketball team in the world according to the latest stats derived from Instagram.

The NBA champions had 28.9 million interactions on the social media platform last month, according to Deportes & Fianzas, a website that publishes social media analysis related to sports management.

The Raptors’ championship rivals, the Golden State Warriors, were ranked in second and received 24.8 million interactions.

After the top two NBA teams, this high volume of attention significantly dropped to less than 5 million for the Milwaukee Bucks.
