BETTING TRENDS
Toronto are 4-1 ATS in their last 5 games.
The total has gone UNDER in 6 of Toronto's last 8 games.
Denver are 2-4 ATS in their last 6 games.
LA Clippers are 2-4 SU in their last 6 games.
Prediction
The Raptors are on a hot streak right now and beat some of the toughest teams in the league like Nuggets and Suns but they're dealing with some injuries with VanVleet and Trent Jr both questionable. Both teams have good defense so I expect a low scoring game. In the last 10 head to head games the average score is 105.1-106.20 favoring Clippers. I'm taking the Under.
PICK: Under 215 (-110)
