Cleveland at Toronto

Premium Pick

The Cleveland Cavs will open the season across the border in Toronto. Both teams have high expectations for the coming season. Cleveland stumbled down the stretch last season, where they lost 10 of their last 13. The Cavs have struggled vs Toronto as they are just 5-9 in the last 14 meetings, and that includes 1-6 in their last 7 in Toronto. The lone win was by a single point. Moreover, the 6 Raptors' wins have all come by 12 points or more, and that does not bode well here for the Cavs. The Raptors have won 11 of their last 15 openers, and seven of their last nine at home. I like Toronto in this one.
