Analysis

Golden State nearly pulled off the upset as 9.5-point underdogs in Toronto the last time these two teams met, which was the first win for the Raptors against the Dubs in nine games.

The Raptors have covered five of the last seven contests against the Dubs and even though they will be playing the second game of a back-to-back, Toronto has performed well ATS and to the over as an underdog and on no rest this season.

Even if Kawhi plays tonight, the Warriors will have revenge on their mind and will have extra incentive to not get swept by the best team in the Eastern Conference, especially with Steph and Draymond now back in the lineup. We anticipate the total going over 226.5 and for the Warriors to win by more than seven.
