Toronto Raptors Looking for More Consistency

Toronto could not keep pace with Memphis on Monday in its 16-point loss at home to the Grizzlies. Three starters missed the game for Toronto, and that could be a factor against Philadelphia, especially due to the Raptors playing back-to-back nights. Jamal Shead did his part, finishing with 20 points and 11 assists. RJ Barrett added 19. The loss came after Toronto beat Milwaukee 121-107 on Friday. The Raptors have alternated wins and losses in their last five games and haven't won consecutive games since opening the season 2-0.

Scottie Barnes leads Toronto with 23.5 points and 7.6 rebounds per game. Barrett is averaging 21.3 points, while Shead leads in assists with 7.0. The Raptors score 116.6 points per contest but give up 113.3. Their outside shooting hasn't been great, hitting just 31.8% from beyond the arc. Toronto has enough offensive talent to compete, but injuries have made it difficult to establish any consistency.

Injuries: Scottie Barnes and Kawhi Leonard are out. Immanuel Quickley, Collin Murray-Boyles and Trayce Jackson-Davis are questionable.

Philadelphia 76ers Looking to Rebound at Home

Philadelphia had little to celebrate Tuesday after Boston handed the 76ers a 123-101 loss. The Celtics led by 11 at halftime and broke the game open in the fourth quarter. Paul George scored 36 points against his former team, and Boston knocked down 22 three-pointers. Tyrese Maxey led Philadelphia with 24 points, but the 76ers shot only 42% from the floor. Philadelphia had beaten Chicago 127-121 on Sunday, bouncing back from a 119-95 loss to Cleveland. The 76ers have been difficult to beat at home despite Tuesday's poor showing.

Maxey leads Philadelphia in scoring with 26.9 points per game. Jaylen Brown adds 22.3, while Joel Embiid averages 17.9 points and a team-high 9.7 rebounds. LeBron James leads the team with 6.7 assists per contest. The 76ers score 111.0 points per game and allow 109.2. Philadelphia shoots 44.6% from the field, but its defense has helped the team win nine of its first 12 games.

Injuries: Adem Bona and Dominick Barlow are out. Ariel Hukporti is out for the season.

Key To The Game

Philadelphia needs to tighten its perimeter defense after Boston made 22 shots from beyond the arc. Toronto can score, but missing key players has hurt its consistency. The 76ers have more options offensively, and their ability to control the boards could make a difference.

Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia 76ers Game Pick

• Philadelphia 76ers

Philadelphia took a beating from Boston on Tuesday, but the 76ers have played good basketball for most of the season. Maxey is scoring consistently, and Brown, Embiid, and James give Philadelphia several ways to attack. Toronto has struggled to put wins together, and injuries have taken away some important scoring options. The Raptors can still compete with Barrett and Shead leading the way, but Philadelphia has the advantage in talent and defense. I like the 76ers to bounce back at home.

Toronto Raptors vs Philadelphia 76ers Over/Under Pick

• Under

Toronto has been scoring 116.6 points per game, but that number hasn't translated into consistent wins. The Raptors managed just 102 against Memphis, and Philadelphia scored only 101 in its loss to Boston. The 76ers have been better defensively, allowing 109.2 points per contest. Toronto also has several important players dealing with injuries, which could limit its scoring options. Philadelphia should control the pace better at home, and I expect both teams to work for their points. I'm taking the under.
