Toronto Raptors vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction 3/26/25 NBA Picks

The Toronto Raptors travel to the Barclays Center to take on the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday night. Here’s a Toronto Raptors vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction. This article will include a Toronto Raptors vs Brooklyn Nets Pick.

The Toronto Raptors were struggling for a while, as they were on a four-game losing streak before they snapped out of it with a 112-104 road win over the Wizards on Monday. Immanuel Quickley and Jakob Poeltl led the team in scoring with 21 points apiece. Scottie Barnes added 13 points with 10 rebounds and eight assists, while Jamal Shead chipped in with 14 points and three assists off the bench. As a team, the Raptors shot just 40 percent from the field and 10 of 36 from the 3-point line, which aren't great numbers. However, with the game tied early in the fourth quarter, it was the Raptors who went on a pivotal 15-5 run to start to pull away. Orlando Robinson had a rough game as he shot just one of seven from the field to finish with just two points off the bench. 

Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Nets have been in a major slump as they've lost 14 of their last 16 games overall, and they will be looking to snap a four-game slide after getting trampled by the Mavericks in a 120-101 loss on Monday. Nic Claxton led the team with 19 points, seven rebounds, and three assists on eight of 11 shooting, Cameron Johnson added 17 points with eight assists, while Trendon Watford chipped in with 12 points off the bench. As a team, the Nets shot 51 percent from the field and 11 of 33 from the 3-point line as they got off to a terrible start and managed just 17 points in the first quarter to fall behind by as many as 22 points. The Nets just kept shooting themselves in the foot as they finished with 19 turnovers for the game, and they allowed the Mavericks to shoot over 56 percent from the field for the entire game. The Nets will face the Clippers following this one.

Why the Brooklyn Nets will win

• The Nets have won each of their last 10 games as home favorites following a loss.
• The Raptors have lost each of their last six road games against Atlantic Division opponents following a win.
• The Nets have covered the spread in each of their last five games against Eastern Conference opponents.
• The Raptors have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five games as road underdogs against Atlantic Division opponents following a win.

Why the Toronto Raptors will win

• The Raptors have won each of their last three games as road underdogs against Eastern Conference opponents.
• The Nets have lost 14 of their last 16 games.
• The Raptors have covered the spread in each of their last five games as road underdogs following a win.
• The Nets have failed to cover the spread in four of their last five home games against Raptors teams that held a losing record.

The Raptors have ruled out Gradey Dick again, and they have decided to rest Immanuel Quickley and Jakob Poeltl again, while the Nets are still missing Cam Thomas and they are resting Cameron Johnson. The Raptors come into this meeting as the team in better form, but they have decided to rest two of their best players once again, which signals how much this game means to them. With that being said, it's tough to trust any team that is struggling like the Nets have been, but I think they can take advantage of a Raptors team not interested in winning.
