Am I missing something? OKC has the better record, dominated the Raptors when they played in November, and is playing like the better team as of late. I’m not sure how Toronto is a favorite, let alone by 6 points, so I feel like taking OKC to cover is easy. Taking the Thunder to win, however, is smart.

The two teams have had different results lately, though. OKC has won 6 of their 7 last, and Toronto has dropped 5 of their last 8. The Raptors are favored in tonight’s meeting, but the Thunder has played some really solid basketball lately, so I expect that this one will come down to the wire.

While OKC’s record at covering the spread (6-5) isn’t spectacular, they have definitely played every opponent close so far. Toronto is missing their best player in Pascal Siakim, and I think that is enough to not only give the Thunder a good chance to cover, but to win the game.

Toronto is limping into this game having won just one of its last ten games. Both teams are currently riding a three-game losing streak but the Raptors are trending below 50% in terms of every major trend against the spread. Toronto bottoms out when they’re favored between 6 to 9 points. In that situation they are covering the spread just 30% of the time.

The Oklahoma City Thunder tank session is in full swing, but that doesn’t mean the good guys won’t pick up a win every now and then. After a 21-point drubbing by the Dallas Mavericks on Monday night, the Thunder will have a much better shot at a win tonight as they host the Toronto Raptors.

Tonight, OKC hosts the reigning NBA champion Toronto Raptors (25-14). The Thunder defeated the Raptors in Toronto just a couple of weeks ago in a nail-biter, and tonight’s matchup will likely be a close one as well.

Tonight, the Thunder takes on the Raptors (22-10) in Toronto. The Raptors are dealing with a lot injuries, but they have managed to scrape together some solid wins regardless, even without Pascal Siakim, Marc Gasol, and Norman Powell. OKC is also dealing with injuries, and tonight, they will be without Danilo Gallinari and Dennis Schröder, both major contributors.
