Try PointsBet’s “Request Your Bet” feature — You name it, they’ll price it.The Raptors are coming off a victory over the Bulls on Tuesday night where that new and improved defense shone, holding Chicago to just 98 points, and helping Toronto cover the 3.5-point spread. It was the team’s eighth win in their last 10 games.
Tonight, the Raps will be laying points in a second straight Eastern Conference matchup. They opened as 1-point favorites and have been bet to Toronto -2 as of Thursday morning. Meanwhile, Washington is coming off a big 119-116 win over the Hawks on Tuesday, and now Kristaps Porzingis is expected to return to the court after a two-game absence.Article content
The Wizards are an interesting team. They aren’t overly good or bad at anything in particular. They rank 15th in offensive rating and 19th in defensive rating. Bradley Beal is also playing his best basketball of the season, putting up 26.8 points on 53% shooting in February. So, it makes sense oddsmakers think this will be a tight matchup.One: they lead the NBA in both turnover rate and steals per game. While the Wizards rank 16th in turnover rate.
To me, that equates to a few extra possessions for the Raptors in what should be a tight game. I’d take a look at Toronto on the moneyline tonight.Article content
