Toronto Raptors Betting PreviewÂ
The Toronto Raptors haven’t been at their best lately as they’ve dropped four of their last seven games overall, but they will be feeling much better after they snapped a two-game skid with a dominant 145-127 win over the Warriors last night. Immanuel Quickley led the team with 40 points and 10 assists on 11 of 13 shooting, Scottie Barnes added 26 points with seven rebounds and 11 assists while Brandon Ingram chipped in with 22 points and five assists. As a team, the Raptors shot a sizzling 59 percent from the field and 21 of 34 from the 3-point line as they absolutely dominated the first half by 70-50, before they poured in another 37 points in the fourth quarter to pull away late and win comfortably on the road.
Sacramento Kings Betting PreviewÂ
Meanwhile, the Sacramento Kings came back to life with a four-game win streak but they are now hoping to avoid a third straight defeat after getting scorched by the Heat in a 130-117 loss last night. DeMar DeRozain led the team with 23 points and five assists, Russell Westbrook tallied 22 points with seven assists on nine of 14 shooting while Zach LaVine and Malik Monk each scored 18 points. As a team, the Kings shot 51 percent from the field and 11 of 30 from the 3-point line, but they were poor on the defensive end, particularly in the second quarter where they allowed 45 points to have them trailing for the rest of the game. Domantas Sabonis had a quiet game of just six points on three of eight shooting while Dennis Schroder finished with just four points on two of seven shooting off the bench.
Toronto v Sacramento Free Prediction
The Raptors are still missing RJ Barrett, Jakob Poeltl and Ja’Kobe Walter, while the Kings have ruled out Keegan Murray for this one. The Raptors have been struggling lately, but they looked great in their dominant win over the Warriors last night thanks to a big game from Quickley and they have opened as road favorites against the Kings who really struggled to contain the Heat in last night’s blowout defeat. The Kings come into this contest as the healthier team right now, but I would be surprised if they didn’t rest Sabonis for this contest because he only just got back from injury. With that being said, the Kings were poor on the defensive end last night and I don’t think that will improve too much, so I will back the Raptors to take advantage and escape with a narrow win and cover on the road in this spot.
