Series History

So far this season, the Thunder is 1-0 against the Raptors (0-0 at home, 1-0 on the road).

Why the Thunder Will Cover (-19)

Toronto has lost an astounding 7 games so far this season by at least 20 points, and I’m thinking they get number 8 against the Thunder. The Raptors lost to the Memphis Grizzlies by 31 just two days ago, and that was at in Toronto. OKC is going to pop off in the much-anticipated return of Chet Holmgren. This one could be ugly.

Why the Game Will NOT Hit the Over (230.5)

I expect OKC to win by a lot, but I think it’s going to be due to suffocating defense. The Thunder has held 18 opponents under 100 points so far this season, and I think it happens agains tonight.
