Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia 76ers Moneyline Prediction

The 76ers are looking to bounce back after a 123-101 loss to the Boston Celtics on Tuesday. Philadelphia has dropped two of its last three games, but that stretch came after a five-game winning run between Oct. 28 and Nov. 4. Its 7-3 record over the last 10 outings is encouraging, although the team has posted a negative net rating over that span (-0.3), which raises some concerns.

The Raptors also have a negative net rating over their last 10 encounters (-1.5). They’ve dropped six of those 10 games, including three of their last four. Following Wednesday’s 98-93 loss to the Celtics, the Raptors are now on a two-game losing streak and struggling to cope with the absence of key players. Over their last four outings, Toronto has posted the eighth-worst defensive rating in the NBA, at 117.8.

Although Philadelphia could also be without some starters, leaving both teams short on depth, the 76ers should find a way to secure the victory. They have more star power and hold the edge in the home/away splits. Philadelphia is 5-3 at home this season, while Toronto is just 3-3 on the road.

Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia 76ers Player Prop

Tyrese Maxey has been the 76ers’ best player this season, which is saying something given the presence of Joel Embiid and the offseason additions of Jaylen Brown and LeBron James. Maxey is averaging 26.7 points per game across 12 appearances and should be the 76ers’ No. 1 offensive option tonight.

Although Maxey has failed to clear the 24.5-point line in three of his last four outings, he’s scored at least 25 points nine times this season, hitting the mark in 75% of his games. This looks like an ideal bounce-back opportunity against a depleted Raptors team playing the second game of a back-to-back.

Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia 76ers Same Game Parlay

The 76ers are averaging 110.2 points per game, while Toronto is putting up 114.5. Although neither offence has been particularly dominant, the teams average 224.7 points combined. Each of the Raptors’ last four away games has gone over this line, as have three of the Sixers’ last five at home.

Toronto covered the spread in Wednesday’s loss to the Celtics, and it could do so again against a Philadelphia squad that isn’t expected to be at full strength. The Sixers have failed to cover the 9.5-point spread in eight of their last nine games, while Toronto has covered it in six of its last eight.

Brown is a strong candidate to go over his scoring line, especially if Embiid and James are sidelined. In that scenario, he could operate as the 76ers’ second offensive option behind Maxey. Brown has scored more than 22.5 points in three of his last five appearances.

Toronto Raptors Team News

The Raptors are playing the second game of a back-to-back on Thursday, so their injury report isn’t expected to change significantly from Wednesday’s loss to the Celtics.

Kawhi Leonard remains out with a knee injury, while Scottie Barnes is still sidelined with a groin problem. As a result, Ja’Kobe Walter and Collin Murray-Boyles are expected to retain their places in the starting lineup.

The back-to-back schedule will also leave the Raptors at a disadvantage. This will be their fourth road game in their last six outings.

Philadelphia 76ers Team News

The 76ers could rest James (back) and Embiid (foot). They’re also without Dominick Barlow (back), Adem Bona (neck), and Ariel Hukporti (Achilles).

Jabari Walker could be in line for a larger role at centre and looks likely to start. If James doesn’t play, the 76ers could turn to Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Dean Wade to fill the void at forward.

The Sixers last played Boston on Tuesday, giving them one day of rest.
