With the series finely balanced at 2-2, action in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs in the 2025-26 NBA competition, the Cleveland Cavaliers hope for home dominance against the Toronto Raptors. This match on Wednesday night between the no. 4 seed Cavaliers and the no. 5 seed Raptors comes with our prediction of Raptors +8.5 handicap.
Cleveland won the first game 126-113 and the second game 115-105 for a 2-0 lead. The Raptors rose to the occasion and won 126-104 in game 3, followed by a 93-83 win in game 4. The winner of this series will face either the Detroit Pistons or the Orlando Magic in the conference semi-finals.
After wins in the first two games, the Cavs boasted a record of seven victories in eight matches. That was shattered, though, following back-to-back defeats. Playing at home could be a blessing, as the Cavs won their last six home games. Donovan Mitchell (24.3) and James Harden (21.8) will continue to be Cleveland’s best bets.
The Raptors stormed to life in games three and four but now need to address their road form. Toronto have lost six of their last seven games on the road. Immanuel Quickley’s absence is a big loss for Toronto, who will hope Scottie Barnes (25.8 points and 7.3 assists) continues to dominate the series for them.
