Raptors vs. Kings Same Game Parlay
Raptors -2.5 (-150)
Teasing the line with this alt spread pick, take the Raptors to cover the spread as favourites at -2.5. While the Raptors are rightly favoured to take the win over a porous Kings squad that sits second-last in the Western Conference standings, in the back half of a road back-to-back, the Raps’ legs could be a bit tired this evening.

Facing a Kings team that ranks fourth-worst in the NBA in defensive rating, look for the Raps to have no trouble pushing the pace down the floor and taking the rock into the teeth of the defence as subpar defenders such as Russell Westbrook, Zach LaVine, and former Raptors great, DeMar DeRozan are exposed on the court, letting up easy buckets routinely.
Inversely, while the Kings pride themselves on their explosive offensive firepower, look for this to be quickly extinguished by the Raptors superb team defence, limiting easy buckets, and generating turnovers on the other end.
Bank on the Raptors to take care of business as they continue on their four-game West Coast road trip, notching their second victory in a row, covering the alt spread by -2.5.
