Toronto Raptors vs Washington Wizards Prediction 4-7-24 Picks

The Washington Wizards and Toronto Raptors meet Sunday in NBA action at the Scotiabank Arena. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Wizards vs Raptors prediction.

Washington Wizards

The Washington Wizards have been in a real slump as they’ve lost five of their last six games overall and they will be hoping to snap a two-game skid after getting beaten by the Trail Blazers in a 108-102 loss on Friday. Deni Avdija led the team with 22 points, 12 rebounds and two blocks, Jordan Poole added 20 points with nine assists while Tristan Vukcevic chipped in with 17 points. As a team, the Wizards shot just 43 percent from the field and five of 33 from the 3-point line as they worked their way back from an early 12-point deficit, only to go ice-cold and go scoreless in the final 2:22 to allow the Trail Blazers off the hook in the end.

Toronto Raptors

Meanwhile, the Toronto Raptors have been one of the coldest teams in the league, but they will be feeling so much better after putting an end to a 15-game losing streak with a surprising 117-111 win over the Bucks on Friday. Gary Trent Jr drained seven 3-pointers to finish with 31 points on 11 of 22 shooting, RJ Barrett added 26 points with seven rebounds while Immanuel Quickley tallied 25 points with 11 rebounds and nine assists. As a team, the Raptors shot 45 percent from the field and 14 of 36 from the 3-point line as they exploded for 37 points in the second quarter to erase an early 10-point deficit, before they held the Bucks scoreless in the final 53 seconds to escape with the gritty road win.

Wizards vs Raptors prediction

The Wizards could be shorthanded once again with Kyle Kuzma and Richaun Holmes both listed as questionable, while the Raptors are still keeping eyes on Bruce Brown and Gary Trent Jr who are both questionable also. The Wizards have continued their downward spiral with five losses in their last six games, and they would’ve been disappointed with their loss to the Trail Blazers. The Raptors were absolutely ice-cold before they upset the Bucks in their last outing. You couldn’t back either side with any confidence these days, but if the Raptors play half as good as they did in their last game, they can get past this banged up Wizards squad.
