Brooklyn Nets vs Toronto Raptors Betting Preview

On Wednesday, December 20, 2023, the Brooklyn Nets will face off against the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena, with tip-off scheduled for 7:30 PM ET. This matchup features two divisional rivals, adding extra significance as both teams look to gain momentum.

The Nets enter this game with a record of 12-20, having had three days off since their last contest, a narrow loss to the Orlando Magic, 102-101. This extended break could provide the Nets with a much-needed advantage, allowing their players to rest and recover. Despite struggling lately, losing 16 of their last 25 games, they are still considered slight favorites with a spread of Nets -1.0 and a moneyline of -110.

Conversely, the Raptors are in a rough patch, coming into this game with a dismal record of 7-26 and riding an 11-game losing streak. They played just yesterday, suffering a heavy defeat to the Boston Celtics, 125-71. This back-to-back situation could hinder their performance, as fatigue sets in.

Betting trends indicate that sharp bettors are leaning towards the Under for Scottie Barnes's points prop, which opened at Under 21.5 Points (-105) and has since moved to Under 20.5 Points (-125). With Barnes being a focal point for Toronto, bettors are keen to monitor his scoring output amid the team's struggles.

Both teams will be motivated to secure a win, but with the Nets enjoying extra rest and the Raptors grappling with fatigue and a losing streak, this matchup is shaping up to be an intriguing contest for fans and bettors alike.
