This is the first road game for Toronto, and San Antonio is a tough place to play. Toronto starting center Jonas Valanciunas suffered a sprained ankle against the 76ers and might not play. San Antonio is tops defensively in the NBA in points allowed (88 points per game) and is beating opponents by +9 points per game. The Spurs are 37-22 ATS after playing a non-conference game, winning at Chicago the last game, 87-77. San Antonio beat the Raptors in both the teams' matchups last season and have a three-game winning streak against Toronto. The Spurs lead the all-time series 31-14, including 17-4 straight up at home versus the Raptors, covering four of the last five in the Alamodome. San Antonio is also on a 44-23 ATS run in the first half of the season, so back home court. Play San Antonio.
