Toronto Raptors vs. Brooklyn Nets (7:30 PM ET)
Line: Toronto Raptors (-11) vs. Brooklyn Nets (+11); total: 227.5 – view all NBA lines
Toronto’s tilted the box score in its current three-game run; a stretch in which the team has put up 114 or more points, including 132 points in a win over the Nets. That said, you can probably expect another blowout win for the Raptors here, especially with both Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan playing at a high level. But with Brooklyn playing at home and obviously seeking revenge, there should be a chance of an upset no matter how slim it looks. After all, seven of the Nets’ total wins (8) this season have all happened at the Barclays Center.
Writer’s Prediction
Toronto wins and covers.
Minnesota Timberwolves vs. San Antonio Spurs (8:30 PM ET)
Line: Minnesota Timberwolves (+11) vs. San Antonio Spurs (-11); total: 202.5 – view all NBA lines
Minny’s won three of its last four games, but each of those wins came at home. The T-Wolves have found minimal success on the road, where they are just 5-14. They also lost the last eight matches with San Antonio, including this season’s first meeting back at the Target Center. The Spurs should be able to make it nine-straight wins over Minnesota as long as they stick to their game plan: share the ball and turn defense into more offense. San Antonio ranks fifth in the league in assists (24.1) and second in scoring defense (98.0).
Writer’s Prediction
San Antonio wins, but does not cover the 11-point spread.
