Toronto didn't overwork their starters in last night's loss at the Knicks, with five bench players playing 9-to-22 minutes. Cleveland also played last night, an emotional game topping Oklahoma City, 129-122, in a battle of the two best teams in each conference. Every starter played over 30 minutes, led by Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, who played 38 minutes. It was a thriller all the way at 124-122 with two minutes left. The Cavs have failed to cover two of their last three at home, including as a 14-point favorite over Utah. Play Toronto.

Premium Picks
Cleveland at Toronto
A pair of young up-and-coming teams square off tonight in the opener at Toronto. Cleveland has already made the step up, and they were better at home (26-15) than away (22-19) last year, which is common with young teams. Toronto has great pieces in the backcourt to build around in Immanuel Quickley and R.J. Barrett along with All-Star forward Scottie Barnes (19.9 ppg, 8.2 rpg), the fourth overall pick in 2021. When the Raptors had Barnes, Quickley, and Barrett on the court with 7-foot center Jakob Poeltl (11.1 ppg, 8.6 rpg), they outscored opponents by 65 points. Play Toronto.

Cleveland at Toronto
Cleveland is laying a lot of points for a road game and the Raptors are 5-0 ATS at home against opponents with .600 road winning percentages and 7-2 ATS versus teams with winning road records overall. Toronto has covered the spread in both meetings this season while winning outright 124-121 on Jan. 1 and the Raptors are 6-1 ATS the past seven meetings. The Cavaliers are on a nine-game win streak, but they are playing their third road contest in four days and fifth road game in 10 days. Toronto has won two in a row and Immanuel Quickley scored 25 points as the Raptors defeated Houston 107-104 on Friday night after almost blowing a 22-point lead. Take the points with the Raptors.
