The Raptors are entering this game with a 44-35 record overall this season and they are 22-18 in their road games this season where they will be in this game.

In their 1st game against the Heat, Scottie Barnes led the team in points in that game with 25 while Brandon Ingram was next on the team with 23 points.

Their offense is averaging 114.4 PPG and their defense is allowing their opponents to average 111.9 PPG against them. The Raptors have an ATS record of 40-39 this season and their O/U record is 30-49.

The Knicks are entering this game with a 51-28 record overall this season and they are 28-9 in their home games this season where they will be in this game. They are entering this game on a 3 game winning streak with wins coming against the Memphis Grizzlies, the Chicago Bulls, and the Atlanta Hawks, but this is also the 2nd game of a back-to-back for them with their game against the Boston Celtics still to be played on Thursday night.

The current betting odds have the Knicks listed as a 6.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. The Knicks have looked great in their games this season with their 51-28 record overall which has them right near the top of the East. They have looked great on their home court too with their 28-9 home record this season. Meanwhile, the Raptors have looked good in their games this season with their 44-35 record overall which has them in the top half of the East. They have been a good road team too with their 22-18 road record this year. The Raptors have been a solid team in the East this season, but they definitely haven't been an elite team and haven't played at their best in road games either. They are off a win over the Heat in their last one, but they haven't looked great lately with their 5-5 record in their last 10 games. They aren't in a great situation here either, playing this game on a back-to-back where they have to go on the road right after another tough game against the Heat who are still fighting for seeding. The Knicks are also in a bad situation here since they are on a back-to-back too and have a tougher game against the Celtics the night before, but they are at home for both games and have also been rolling lately. They are 7-3 in their last 10 games and have momentum on their side with 3 wins in a row now. The Raptors still need this game since they are in 6th place in the East and are still at risk of falling into the play-in tournament, but the Knicks also need this game to lock up the 3 seed since they have the Cavaliers right on their tail. The Knicks are in the better situation here being at home for both games and they have crushed the Raptors in their meetings this season. The best way to place a bet here is on the Knicks to cover the spread in this game.

“I always tell my team, in those situations, if you don't step up, you really sink to the level of your preparation. And I'm very confident in our preparation, and all the work that we're putting in over the course of the summer and whole season to be in this position. This is what we wanted, right? We wanted to be fighting for the playoffs and to play meaningful games. They have a saying in Italy, 'You always wanted to ride a bicycle, and finally you have a bicycle, now you have to turn the pedals.' You’ve got to enjoy the moment.” - Darko Rajakovic after his team’s win against the Heat in their game on Tuesday. 

“Good win by our guys. Gutsy win. We went down a couple of times. Double digits. And our guys just kind of stayed with it, stayed with it, stayed with it. Nobody panicked.” - Mike Brown after his team’s win against the Hawks in their game on Monday.
