The Philadelphia 76ers and the Toronto Raptors duke it out at the Scotiabank Arena on Sunday night. Here’s a Philadelphia 76ers vs Toronto Raptors Prediction. This article will include a Philadelphia 76ers vs Toronto Raptors Pick.
Philadelphia 76ers Betting Preview
The Philadelphia 76ers are starting to heat up as they’ve won five of their last six games overall and they will be aiming for a third straight victory after routing the Magic in a 103-91 road win on Friday. Tyrese Maxey led the team with 29 points on 10 of 22 shooting, Joel Embiid added 22 points with nine rebounds and three assists while Paul George chipped in with 18 points, nine rebounds, three steals and two blocks.
As a team, the 76ers shot just 41 percent from the field and four of 28 from the 3-point line as they struggled to make their shots early on and fell behind at halftime. Before they pulled ahead on the back of their defense, particularly in the fourth quarter where they restricted the Magic to just 12 points.
Toronto Raptors Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Toronto Raptors have been in pretty good form as they’ve won five of their last seven games overall. They are hoping to bounce back in this one after having their three-game win streak halted by the red-hot Celtics in a 125-117 road defeat on Friday. RJ Barrett led the team with 19 points and seven assists, Ja’Kobe Walter added 19 points on seven of 12 shooting while Immanuel Quickley chipped in with 17 points and 13 assists.
As a team, the Raptors shot 49 percent from the field and 18 of 47 from the 3-point line, but they were put on the back foot early on after allowing 68 points in the first half to trail by as many as 20 points. This was a shame because they rallied to cut the deficit to just five points with 6:15 left in the fourth quarter.

Philadelphia 76ers vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The 76ers are keeping an eye on Joel Embiid who is questionable due to left knee injury management, while the Raptors have ruled out RJ Barrett and Jakob Poeltl with Scottie Barnes and Brandon Ingram both questionable.
This is definitely a game where you should check the lineups before tipoff given the injury cloud hanging over key players on both teams, but the 76ers still hold the edge in recent form. They are only sweating on the availability of Embiid, so as it stands, I prefer a play on the 76ers at this short line.
