Toronto looks to snap a two-game losing streak against the Pelicans, who still are dealing with several injuries and are out of the playoff picture. New Orleans comes off a 114-104 loss to Utah, which was the second of a home back-to-back with the Jazz, and the Pelicans defense allowed Utah a .523 field goal percentage. Anthony Davis played limited minutes again and scored 16 points. The Raptors lost to Houston, but that was just two days after an overtime loss at Detroit. Toronto now has had two days off and the Raptors are 14-2 ATS their last 16 meetings at New Orleans. Also, the road team is 22-6-1 ATS the last 29 meetings and the Raptors are 12-5-1 ATS the last 18 times they have played the Pelicans. Look for Toronto to bounce back with the win and cover. Play the Raptors.
