76ers vs. Raptors: Betting Odds, Game Notes & Prediction
The Philadelphia 76ers are back on the floor Monday night to take on the Toronto Raptors. Coming off a successful week, the Sixers will look to build on their biggest win streak of the season.
Last Tuesday, the Sixers continued their seven-game homestand with a matchup against the Sacramento Kings. After taking down a young and thriving Sacramento team, the Sixers took a few days off before returning to the court to take on the Golden State Warriors.
With the defending champions in town, the Sixers faced a depleted version of this year’s Warriors team as key members of the roster, such as Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins, missed the matchup as they battled injuries.
Through the first half of the Friday night matchup, the Sixers struggled. Once the second half rolled around, Philadelphia turned their play up a notch, gained a lead, and put the shorthanded Warriors away while collecting their fourth-straight win.
On Monday, the Sixers will go toe-to-toe with the Raptors for the third time this season. When the Sixers and the Raptors met in Toronto twice in late October, both teams split the regular season series. On Monday, Philadelphia will look to use their home-court advantage and snag a fifth-straight win over their division rival.
