Game Preview

The Raptors had a nice run but have slowed down in the past two events. They lost to the Blazers 105-102 and the Suns in their most recent appearance, 129-89.

Everyone had a disastrous performance, with Scottie Barnes leading the way with 16 points. Raptors scored just 11 points in the second quarter, which was the moment when they lost control of the game.

Golden State is accelerating, and they are 8-1 in the last nine events. For the moment, Steve Kerr’s unit is 6th in the West and holds the spot that directly leads to the NBA playoffs.

They used the home-court edge in the last few weeks magnificently, and the latest win against the Bucks 104-93 is their fifth over the previous six, with the sole loss being to the shorthanded Denver Nuggets.

Raptors vs. Warriors Betting Trends

  • Toronto is 10-3 against the spread in the last 13 road games.
  • Total went over in five of the last six games played against the Warriors.
  • Golden State is 8-1 in the past nine games.
  • They are 10-2 in the last 12 games at the Chase Center.

Raptors vs. Warriors Head to Head

Raptors won 104-101 in the first meeting of the year in November.

Raptors vs. Warriors Predictions

The Warriors are in excellent shape, and they play well at home. Raptors are on the road, and this will be their fourth straight away game, meaning that they surely experience some fatigue. Our betting pick here is the Warriors to win by at least five points.
