Game Prediction
This is the exact kind of game that the Wizards could end up winning. However, their inconsistency and overall lack of talent make it a risky choice at best. Furthermore, Toronto may have found something, seeing as they are coming off a good win against an Eastern Conference contender in the Milwaukee Bucks. Therefore, I’m going with the Raptors to not only win but also cover the spread.
Final Pick
Toronto Raptors -3.5 (-115)
