Raptors vs. Clippers Preview
Yesterday in downtown Toronto there was a long lineup at a local LCBO store, fans waiting to meet James Harden of the Clippers, in town to take on the Raptors (16-28, fifth in the Atlantic) tonight at Scotiabank Arena. That’s the power of NBA celebrity on display right there. But the Clippers (28-14, first in the Pacific) have also backed up the brand with exemplary play of late, an interesting game for Canada sports betting fans to check (particularly the return on Kawhi Leonard to Toronto).

Raptors Insights
The Raptors have lost three straight, and are 2-8 in their last ten games, out of sorts after two major trades that shook up the roster – Pascal Siakam had a triple double last night in his new digs in Indiana, and OG Anunoby had 26 points in the New York Knicks’ big win last night over the defending champion Denver Nuggets.
The Raptors are still coming together as a team – it feels like training camp – and it doesn’t help their cause tonight against L.A. that G Immanuel Quickley (thigh contusion) will be out of the line-up, joining C Jakob Poeltl (ankle), who has been out long term.

The Raptors lost their last game – 108-100 to the Memphis Grizzlies, at home, Monday night, led by Scottie Barnes, who had 22 points, 12 rebounds and eight assists and six blocked shots. According to Sportsnet, with Quickley out, Barnes will slide over to point guard. NBA pre-game notes this morning has Dennis Schroder starting at PG.
Clippers Insights
The Clippers are looking to make it four wins in a row. They’re 20-4 since the start of December, so that makes them a Goliath-like opponent against a struggling Toronto team, seemingly now on a track to secure a Top 6 draft pick.
