Cleveland Cavaliers will look to extend their lead in this seven-game series when they play Toronto Raptors on Sunday night at Scotiabank Arena. The Cavs maximized their home advantage in this series, winning by comfortable margins in Games 1 and 2. However, they suffered a 22-point blowout defeat in Game 3 on Thursday night to loosen their grip on this contest. A win tonight could calm their nerves ahead of the reverse fixture on Wednesday.
The Raptors, meanwhile, will only have one goal in their minds – to even out this series. They responded exceptionally in Game 3, with Scottie Barnes posting 33 points and 11 assists. RJ Barrett was also on fire during the night, contributing 33 points and 5 assists. It was the kind of performance that the fans had been expecting from their youthful squad. We expect them to deploy another fast-paced attacking style on Sunday night.

Our Toronto Raptors vs Cleveland Cavaliers Prediction
Bookmakers are backing the Cavs by -170 odds to restore their two-game lead. To do that, they must have a plan to stop Barnes, who had an exceptional shooting outing on Thursday, finishing 11-for-17. The Cavs also struggled from the corners, making just one of the 11 attempts. The Raptors, on the other hand, ditched their defensive play for a more attacking style at home. They’ll know that slowing down the play against a top opponent like the Cavaliers is a recipe for disaster. Therefore, we expect both teams to confidently drive to the basket, setting the stage for a thrilling end-to-end contest. Note that both teams are 100% healthy.
Our prediction for Toronto Raptors vs Cleveland Cavaliers: Over 219.5 points.
