Toronto Raptors vs Atlanta Hawks preview

The Raptors struggled to start the season but have shown some life recently with four wins in the past 10 games. However, they have been abysmal on the road with a 1-19 record, which doesn’t bode well as they will be away from home on Thursday.

Toronto is coming off of a 109-93 win against the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. Scottie Barnes had a near triple-double of 17 points, 11 rebounds and eight assists. RJ Barrett and Gradey Dick had 19 and 17 points, respectively.

The Hawks will play the second leg of a back-to-back after suffering a 114-104 loss to the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday. Detroit was able to limit Trae Young to just 13 points, which handicapped Atlanta’s offense. Dyson Daniels led the team in scoring with 20 points, while Jalen Johnson had 17.

Atlanta has lost two straight games and a home game against the Raptors provides the team with a solid opportunity to stop the bleeding.

Toronto Raptors vs Atlanta Hawks betting props

Scottie Barnes’ points total is set at 19.5, a mark he hasn’t crossed in three straight games. It is, however, under his season average of 19.8 points. As this game is expected to be a shootout, bet on the over.

Trae Young’s points total is set at 27.5. After an off game against Detroit, bet on Young to bounce back in style.

Toronto Raptors vs Atlanta Hawks prediction

The oddsmakers favor the Hawks to win this game at home. We expect the same as Toronto has struggled mightily on the road. This should be a high-scoring game with the team total surpassing the 234-point mark.
