10* NBA Game of the Week
(NBA) Toronto vs. Washington, 01/21/2022 8:00 PM, Score: 109 - 105
Point Spread: 1.00 | -110.00 Toronto (Away)
Result: Win
Toronto is coming off 2 straight road losses and only shot 38% in their last game vs Dallas. They should find some easy buckets tonight vs a Wiz team who doesn't play defense.
The Raptors are nearly back to full strength with Goran Dragic the only player out and two others Khem Birch and Gary Trent Jr listed as questionable. The Raptors have covered the spread in 12 of their last 17 overall and are using a solid offense that combines outside scoring from Fred VanVleet and OG Anunoby, with inside presence by Pascal Siakam and Scottie Barnes. Washington has struggled of late, as the Wizards have failed to cover the spread in seven of their last eight and in five of the last 6 at home. Washington is giving up too much on the defensive end as the Wizards are allowing an average of 109.8 points per game and Washington is being outrebounded, as the Wizards give up 44.4 boards per contest.
Take the Toronto Raptors here on Friday night!
