Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Toronto Raptors Prediction
The Toronto Raptors are in a bit of a slump at the moment, and looked very poor against the Rockets last night. They are now on the end of a back-to-back, which is also far from ideal.
Since getting players back from injury, the Pelicans are now playing arguably their best ball of the season. While they have still only won 21 games this season, they are profitable at 37-28-1 ATS, and have covered in seven of their last 10. Our New Orleans Pelicans vs Toronto Raptors prediction is New Orleans Pelicans +5.5.
If your team in the New Orleans Pelicans and Toronto Raptors game takes a 20-point lead, you win!
If you want to place a bet on the moneyline in the New Orleans Pelicans vs Toronto Raptors game, then bet365 is the place to do it. If the team that you have bet on takes a 20-point lead in the game, then bet365 will pay your bet out as a winner. If your team goes on to lose, you are still a winner.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
