The current betting odds have the Raptors listed as a 3.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Raptors have looked good in their games this season with their 36-29 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have looked good on their home court too with their 17-16 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Suns have looked good in their games this season with their 38-27 record overall which has them in the top half of the West. They have been a good road team too with their 16-14 road record this year. The Suns have looked good lately as they are 6-4 in their last 10 games and they have some momentum on their side with 3 wins in a row now. They have looked a lot better since getting Booker back in the lineup, but they still aren't 100% with their lineup. They are still missing a key starter and as good as they have looked lately, they have been beating up some really bad opponents. They aren't in a great situation here either, playing this game on the road on a back-to-back with a game against the Pacers the night before. The Pacers have been terrible this season so they aren't going to need a lot to win that one, but this still won't be an easy game with the Raptors being rested and looking to bounce back after some bad losses. The Raptors have lost 2 games in a row now and they haven't looked good lately with their 4-6 record in their last 10 games. They haven't been at their best in home games this year either, but they haven't been a bad team at home and they are going to bring their best effort here to bounce back with the rest on their side. The Suns have still been really up and down lately when facing stronger teams, so look for the Raptors to take advantage of the Suns in a bad situation here. The best way to place a bet here is on the Raptors to cover the spread in this game.

"He's just about the right things not only as a human, but as a player. Offensively, he'll move the ball. He wants bodies to move, always wants to make the right play. Defensively, he plays hard every night. When your top guy does that, it sets the tone. I think we have the right group led by our right superstar." - Jordan Ott on the team’s turnaround this season.

“I don’t give it too much. Guys are competitive. It was pretty over the board, what he (Murray) did. But I have to see it on film, but I don’t want to make it more than it is.” - Darko Rajakovic after his team’s loss against the Pelicans in their game on Wednesday.
