Raptors Look to Continue Home Streak vs. Pacers: Where to Watch, Injury Reports, Odds
The Toronto Raptors will look to extend their home winning streak to eight games when the Indiana Pacers come to town Wednesday night at 7:30 p.m. ET.
Where to Watch
Sportsnet and TSN 1050 will call the game in Toronto. Bally Sports Indiana and 107.5 The Fan will broadcast for Indianapolis.
What to Watch For
- The Pacers have given Toronto trouble this year, knocking off the Raptors in each of the teams' first two meetings this season. Indiana's roster is full of talented guards who have given Toronto's wing-heavy roster issues. It'll be on O.G. Anunoby and Fred VanVleet to stay in front of the Pacers' quick guards and keep Toronto's defense in the game.
- Scottie Barnes has been listed as questionable for Wednesday and if he can't go it'll be Gary Trent Jr. in the starting lineup. Toronto's going to need some scoring and ball handling off the bench with Trent sliding up either from Will Barton or Jeff Dowtin Jr.
- Precious Achiuwa looked solid in his return to the rotation Sunday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. Expect him to see playing time Wednesday as Toronto looks to work him back into the fold after a couple of games on the bench.
Injury Reports
Toronto has ruled out Otto Porter Jr. and Dalano Banton. Barnes is questionable.
Indiana will be without Kendall Brown. Tyrese Haliburton and Chris Duarte are questionable.
Game Odds
The Raptors are -8.5 point favorites with an implied win probability of 77%. The total for the game is 234.5.
