Raptors Hoping To Build Momentum
The Toronto Raptors have been one of the more interesting teams throughout the entire season.
They’re going to be coming in with the number seven seed in the Eastern Conference, but if they find ways to get the job done towards the back end of the season, they can certainly move up a few spots.
Toronto is going to be coming into this one after an impressive 117-104 win against an above-average Cavaliers team on Thursday.
On the season, Toronto has the 13th rated net rating, the 15th rated offensive rating, and the 11th rated defensive rating.
Pacers Looking To End Year Strong
The Indiana Pacers have been one of the more disappointing teams of this NBA season. They’re going to be coming in at 25-49 and have only won three of their last 10 games, while being on a two-game losing streak.
In Indiana’s most recent game against the Memphis Grizzlies, they ended up losing by 30 points.
On the season, Indiana has the 22nd rated net rating, the 16th rated offensive rating, and the 27th rated defensive rating.

Free NBA Picks — Raptors vs Pacers
For this game, I’m going to go with the Toronto Raptors to cover the spread. I think that Toronto is playing their best basketball as of late, and this is even a team who could make a run in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Toronto is a much better team than a lot of people are giving them credit for, and I fully expected to take care of business.
