Betting on the Toronto Raptors
- Regular Season Record: 22-27
The Toronto Raptors continue to go through a season of many ups and downs, and their outlook does not seem to be the best now that they will be facing a series of seven away games. In this condition, the Raptors have posted a poor 7-15 record, and they have an average of just 112.1 points scored per game.
However, they arrive to this game looking to build momentum off a 113-95 win over the Sacramento Kings in the first game of their long road trip. Pascal Siakam is once again the main man of the team, as he has contributed with 26 points, 7 assists and 11 rebounds.
Visiting the Warriors makes things even more difficult for the Canadian team, which has won just five of its last 22 meetings with the Warriors. This includes the last two. In order to get a positive result in this game, the Raptors will rely on the caliber of Pascal Siakam, who leads the team in points (25.2), assists (6.5), and rebounds (8.2) per game.
Betting on the Golden State Warriors
- Regular Season Record: 24-24
Things have not been going the best way for the Warriors this campaign, even with the presence of their best players on the court. The team arrives to this game while occupying the 10th place in the Western Conference and struggling to, once again, put their record above .500, a problem they were not expected to have to deal with at the beginning of the year.
Although they have lost four of their last five home games, the Warriors have delivered their best performance at home this campaign, posting an outstanding 17-6 record. Golden State’s offense has also been stellar this season, ranking third best in the league with an average of 117.6 points scored per game, something that improves when they play on their home floor, then they average about 119.0 points.
That strength at home was reflected in their most recent commitment, where they had to come from behind to beat the Memphis Grizzlies 120-120.In this game, Stephen Curry got expelled minutes before the end, and Jordan Poole went from villain to hero after scoring the difference points. Curry scored 34 points, while Klay Thompson and Poole contributed with 24 and 21 points, respectively.
JefeBet Prediction
The Warriors may not be at their best, but at home they have always been a very solid team, capable of giving a fight to any team in the league. Also, they are led by Stephen Curry, who has had a great year and who should have no major problems to be effective against a Canadian defense that is very permissive when playing away from home.
Moreover, while the Warriors are not the best team in the league defensively either, they are usually very effective on their home floor, averaging 112.8 points allowed per game. If we compare this to a Raptors team that averages just 112.4 points scored per game, it is clear to see that they will not have an easy night.
Golden State has covered the Spread in 14 of its 23 home games. Meanwhile, the Raptors have covered the Spread in only 8 of their 24 away games, so we expect the Warriors to be strong at home once again and take the win comfortably.
Prediction: Golden State Warriors Spread.
