Toronto Raptors Betting Preview
The Toronto Raptors have been in a major slump as they’ve lost seven of their last 11 games overall and they will be hoping to arrest a three-game skid after getting routed by the Pistons in a 117-105 home defeat on Friday. Ja’Kobe Walter led the team with 22 points, Immanuel Quickley tallied 18 points with eight rebounds and eight assists while Jakob Poeltl chipped in with 10 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks. As a team, the Raptors shot 41 percent from the field and 13 of 37 from the 3-point line as they leaked 36 points in the second quarter to fall behind by as many as 22 points. Before they went on a late run to make it somewhat interesting in the final minutes.Â
Brooklyn Nets Betting Preview
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Nets have been in a major slump as they’ve lost 10 of their last 13 games overall and they will be hoping to bounce back after getting thrashed by the Timberwolves in a 105-90 home defeat on Thursday. Nic Claxton led the team with 18 points, six rebounds and five assists on nine of 10 shooting, Dariq Whitehead added 17 points while Trendon Watford chipped in with 11 points, five rebounds and five assists. As a team, the Nets shot just 42 percent from the field and 11 of 36 from the 3-point line as they struggled against the defensive pressure of the Timberwolves. They were never really in the contest after scoring just 37 points in the first half. D’Angelo Russell had a night to forget as he finished scoreless on zero of six shooting.Â

Toronto Raptors vs Brooklyn Nets Prediction
The Raptors have decided to rest Immanuel Quickley and Jakob Poeltl for this one, while the Nets are resting Nic Claxton and D’Angelo Russell. It’s always tough to pick between two struggling teams who are also resting players late in the season. You just couldn’t back either side with any confidence at the moment, but in what should be a close contest, I would rather lean towards the Raptors. They should be able to rely on Walter to have another big game in this contest.
