Toronto Raptors vs Los Angeles Clippers Preview

The Raptors are yet to find their identity

The Raptors are entering the match after a 16-point loss against the Chicago Bulls as Scottie Barnes put up 20 points and 10 rebounds. This loss broke their five-game winning streak and they had a season-best record of 8-7 in January. Their defense has shown huge improvements as they conceded just 110.4 points per game(11th best) in January. Apart from that, Raptor’s young core has produced high-quality shots but their long-range woes have held them back. They will hunt for a dependable “3 and D” prospect if they are to build around their current core.

The Clippers are rough and tough

The Clippers will come into this game after an 8-point win against the Charlotte Hornets as Norman Powell exploded for 27 points. They have won four out of their last five games and had a 9-6 record in January. The Clippers conceded just 105.4 points per game in January(1st), allowing only 43.6% shooting from their field(1st). Their defensive efforts cover up their offensive issues without Kawhi Leonard whereas Powell and Floor General James Harden have been huge difference-makers as scorers.

Toronto Raptors vs Los Angeles Clippers– Final Prediction and Additional Information

Both teams can employ superb defense, which can make for a grinding game with a bunch of rough scoring periods. However, the Raptors are a much more inconsistent team than the Clippers and their offensive woes can also affect their defensive discipline here. The Center match-up between Jakob Poelt and Ivica Zubac is huge, with Zubac being the favorite to come on the top. Meanwhile, the Clippers can acquire a win by about 5-8 points. The total can be below 212 points but above 202.
