Given the defensive strength of the Raptors and the Kings’ struggles, picking the Raptors to cover the spread of -4.5 is reasonable. A projected score of Raptors 116, Kings 110 supports this pick.

The over/under line is set at 222.5 points. The Raptors’ defense is strong, and the Kings struggle to score.
