A betting preview of Game 1 of the Raptors vs. 76ers playoff series on Saturday, April 16.
) gave many of its starters the night off in the Raptors’ regular-season finale as the team lost to the New York Knicks 105-94. Prior to losing that meaningless game, the Raptors finished a red-hot 14-3 SU and 12-5 ATS over a 17-game stretch through March and early April. That run included two upset wins over the 76ers.
Pascal Siakam enjoyed a career year for the Raptors this season, setting new career highs in rebounds and assists while scoring 22.8 points per game. While the Raptors have a solid offense led by Siakam, Fred VanVleet and Gary Trent Jr., the team’s real strength is its defense. Toronto ranked seventh in the NBA in scoring defense this season allowing only 107.1 points per game.Our best bet for this Raptors vs. 76ers showdown on Saturday is the 76ers on the moneyline .
The Raptors are an excellent team that has proven they can beat the 76ers in recent weeks. With that said, playoff basketball is a different beast, especially when a team is playing on its home court. Philadelphia playing with playoff intensity, rotations and home-court advantage should be able to get the job done at home as a -189 favorite. And thanks to

The UNDER is 6-0 in Toronto’s last six road games, and early series playoff games tend to be a bit low-scoring as each team feels its opponent out. Expect a tightly contested opening game without a ton of scoring on Saturday.
