Raptors at Warriors picks and predictions

Prediction

Warriors 123, Raptors 119

Moneyline

LEAN WARRIORS (-200).

The Warriors should win this game as they will likely be playing their entire rotation and carrying some momentum from their victory over Memphis Wednesday. Golden State is a very dangerous team at home, and although Toronto is a tough, well-coached squad the Warriors should be able to pull this one out.

Against the spread

BET RAPTORS +4.5 (-102).

The Warriors have been terrible ATS lately which makes this your best bet in this game.

Golden State is 0-5 ATS in its last 5 home games and is 1-4-1 ATS in its last 6 games playing on 1 day of rest. Toronto has a better defense and turns the ball over less than Golden State which will also help keep this a tight game even if Toronto’s offense can’t quite keep up.

Over/Under

BET OVER 234.5 (-110).

Recent trends for both teams suggest that the Over should be the much safer bet here. The Over is 5-2 the last 7 times these teams met and is 12-4 in the last 16 meetings in Golden State. The Over is also 3-1-1 following Golden State’s last 5 wins and is 6-1 in the Raptors’ last 7 home games.

Toronto Raptors at Golden State Warriors odds, picks and prediction

Previewing Sunday’s Toronto Raptors at Golden State Warriors NBA betting odds and lines, with basketball picks, tips and predictions.

The Toronto Raptors (2-6) play their third game of a four-game road trip Sunday and visit the Golden State Warriors (5-4) at Chase Center for an 8:30 p.m. ET tip-off. Below, we analyze the Raptors-Warriors NBA betting odds and lines, with picks and predictions.

The Warriors are playing their sixth game of a seven-game homestand which began Jan. 1. They’re 3-2 over the stretch thus far, including a 115-105 win over the Los Angeles Clippers to split a two-game set against the Western Conference rivals.

The Raptors snapped a three-game slide with a 144-123 beat down of the Sacramento Kings Friday. They had lost seven of their previous eight games. They’ll get right back to it Monday against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Raptors at Warriors: Odds, betting lines, predictions and picks

Prediction

Warriors 123, Raptors 117

Money line (ML)

This feels like a trap, but WARRIORS (+125) seems like a gift. The Raptors were mired in an awful stretch of basketball before hanging a franchise-record 144 points on the Kings. That’s more of an indictment on Sacramento, with the Kings also losing 125-99 at home to the Trail Blazers Saturday.

The Warriors have a much better record on the season and are coming off a superior performance in a 10-point win over the Clippers. Rest is equal for both teams.

The Raptors lead the NBA in 3-point attempts per game (42.9) but are just 17th in success rate from behind the arc (36.2%). If those shots don’t fall against the Warriors and PG Stephen Curry, Toronto doesn’t have the interior presence to contend against Warriors PF Draymond Green and rookie C James Wiseman.

Against the spread (ATS)

The money line is a high-confidence play and offers the superior plus-money payout, but the WARRIORS +3.5 (-115) should also be backed with 3 points of insurance in the event of a loss in what could turn into a 3-point shootout.

Both teams are in the bottom half of the league in rebounding, and only one team commits more fouls per game than both the Raptors and Warriors. They’re both in the top third of the Association in free-throw shooting and in the top-12 in turnovers per game.

Over/Under (O/U)

Take the OVER 232.5 (-115) as a partial hedge against our other bets against the Raptors. They’re 5-3 against the O/U on the year, but their reliance on the 3-ball is the greatest factor contributing to that record.

The Warriors rank second-to-last in defending threes with opponents hitting on 40.2% of attempts. If Raptors Gs Kyle Lowry (8.0 3-point attempts per game) and Fred VanVleet (9.1 3PA) are connecting Sunday, then they could win and cover, and will certainly carry this over the projected total.
