Raptors vs. Mavericks Preview
The Raptors have been an absolute wagon ATS this season, going 21-15 ATS as a road ‘dog (58%). Toronto is somehow 9-4 ATS against Western Conference teams on the road this season.
I get it. The Raptors are resting everyone, and the Mavericks are still fighting to get out of the 10th seed (no team has made the playoffs from that spot within eight tries).
But also, talk about an emotional letdown game. After the Luka game Wednesday, now the Mavericks have to face… the Raptors without everyone? And they’re laying 11.5?
No way. This Mavericks team lacks the talent and isn’t good enough to lay that many points in this spot, even against the Toronto backups. I’ll take the Raptors spread.
