The (3-3) Toronto Raptors will host the (4-2) Atlanta Hawks on Monday (October 31) in a game between two NBA Eastern Conference teams with playoff aspirations.
The Hawks have feasted on an easy early season schedule but are coming off a loss against the formidable Milwaukee Bucks. The Raptors, meanwhile, are coming off a loss too.
The Raptors have a unique schedule. In their previous four games where they played a double-dip, they split against the Miami Heat, followed by another double-dip, where they split against the Philadelphia 76ers.
The betting odds and predictions are below:

To no one's surprise, Trae Young is the early season superstar for the Atlanta Hawks. The diminutive point guard is having his way against defenses to the tune of 31 points and ten assists per night.
Dejounte Murray has evolved into an outstanding secondary option next to Young. Murray is averaging 20 points per game and leading the team in steals at the defensive end. Meanwhile, John Collins is the big man in the middle who provides balance and interior presence for the Hawks. He leads the team in rebounds and blocks.
For the Raptors, Pascal Siakam has been sensational. The wingman has provided a punch at both ends with 25 points and nine rebounds per game. Fred VanVleet continues to provide leadership in the Raptors' backcourt. The veteran floor general leads the team in assists and steals.
