img8:05 PM Eastern

Toronto has great depth and balance, eighth in the NBA in points allowed, seventh in field goal shooting defense, plus #10 on offense in points scored. Guard Kyle Lowry is averaging 18.7 points and nine assists in three games since returning from a wrist injury. Toronto is on an 11-2 SU, 7-5-1 ATS run, and the Raptors are 8-2 ATS playing on two days of rest. They face a Cleveland team that has been shaky on defense, on a 4-7 SU/ATS run, ranked #16 in the NBA in field goal shooting defense, and #20 in points allowed. The Cavaliers have lost three in a row, even blowing a 26-point fourth-quarter lead in an overtime loss at Atlanta on Sunday. They fell again in overtime on Monday in Miami. The Cavaliers are 4-9 ATS when their opponent scores 100+ points in their previous game. Play Toronto.
