Smart Game Analysis
Toronto Raptors has a 68% chance of winning the game
The Raptors enter Sacramento with high offensive confidence after a 145-point explosion, while the Kings' defense is reeling without their best wing defender, Keegan Murray.
Key Analysis
- • Sacramento is missing defensive anchor Keegan Murray (ankle), which directly led to them allowing 130 points and 21 three-pointers in their last game.
- • Toronto's trio of Scottie Barnes, Brandon Ingram, and Immanuel Quickley is clicking, fresh off a combined 88-point performance against Golden State.
- • The Raptors hit 21 three-pointers yesterday, creating a nightmare matchup for a Kings perimeter defense that is currently depleted.
- • Sacramento has lost 8 of their last 12 games and holds a poor 9-15 home record this season.
- • With Jakob Poeltl out for Toronto, Domantas Sabonis has a massive rebounding advantage, but he cannot outscore the Raptors' perimeter attack alone.
- • To pull off an upset, the Kings must slow the pace and force the ball inside to Sabonis on nearly every possession.
