Houston Rockets vs Toronto Raptors Betting Preview

The Houston Rockets, boasting an impressive 18-9 record, are set to face off against the struggling Toronto Raptors, who sit at 7-21. The action unfolds on Sunday night, with tip-off scheduled for 6:00 PM ET at Scotiabank Arena, home of the Raptors. Despite being on the road, the Rockets enter the game as significant favorites, which is reflected in the -7.5 point spread.

Both teams have had the luxury of three days off since their last games, offering them a chance to rest and regroup. The Rockets capitalized on their recent momentum by defeating the New Orleans Pelicans 133-113, extending their successful run to 17 wins in their last 25 outings. With a moneyline of -310, Houston's implied probability of victory stands at a robust 73%.

In contrast, the Raptors are experiencing a rough patch, with a six-game losing streak that most recently included a 101-94 loss to the Brooklyn Nets. Toronto's moneyline sits at +260, translating to a 27% implied chance of pulling off an upset.

Bettors focusing on player props might want to keep an eye on Scottie Barnes. His points and assists have been a popular market, and sharp betting action has been moving the line. Initially set at under 27.5 points and assists (-110), it has now shifted to 26.5 (-120), indicating strong interest in the under.

The Rockets appear to hold the upper hand in this matchup, but with both teams coming off a mini-break, the dynamics could shift. Toronto will be eager to snap their losing streak at home, while Houston aims to continue their climb up the standings.
