Why the Thunder Will Cover (+1.5)

OKC’s injury report is once again the reason that the Thunder is an underdog, but they’re still capable of finding ways to win. The Raptors haven’t been challenged by a tough team lately, while OKC has had some pretty stiff competition, so I like the Thunder to leave Toronto with a win.

Why the Game Will NOT Hit the Over (216.5)

Toronto doesn’t score much, but its defense is solid, and that’s a recipe for a lower-scoring game for the Thunder. OKC caught fire from three on Sunday afternoon, but even if they continue that tonight, I could see the Thunder defense holding Toronto to a reasonable score.
