The Toronto Raptors look to stay hot after winning nine of their last 12 games.

Pascal Siakam is averaging 20.5 points and 4.7 assists while Fred VanVleet is averaging 20.1 points and 4.4 rebounds.

The 76ers are 13-36-2 ATS in their last 51 road games and 1-5 ATS in their last 6 games overall. The Raptors are 5-13 ATS in their last 18 home games and 4-0 ATS in their last 4 games overall. The over is 5-2 in 76ers last 7 road games. The under is 4-1 in Raptors last 5 overall. The 76ers are 2-9 ATS in the last 11 meetings in Toronto.

The Philadelphia 76ers are still probably the better team overall this season, but they've been hit or miss lately and the defensive issues are becoming more consistent. The Toronto Raptors continue to play their best ball of the season and they just beat the 76ers as bigger underdogs. The Raptors are on a roll right now and that includes winning their last five games by an average of 6.6 points. I'll take the free bucket with the home team.
