The Toronto Raptors are looking to improve their standing in the Eastern Conference playoff picture when they host the lowly Sacramento Kings on Wednesday night.

The Raptors are right back at home after a loss in Detroit last night, while the Kings had two days off after a 116-99 loss in Brooklyn.

Toronto got a 122-109 road win over the Kings back in January.

The oddsmakers have the Raptors as big home favorites at the best betting sites on
Wednesday night.

Let’s take a look at the odds, a player prop, and my prediction for Wednesday night’s NBA matchup.

Kings vs. Raptors Best NBA Prop Bets

Raptors Best NBA Prop Bet

  • Scottie Barnes OVER 7.5 Assists (-140)

Scottie Barnes has been dishing out dimes with regularity recently. The Raptors forward has double-digit assists in five straight games, and OVER 7.5 assists in six of seven and seven of his last nine contests.

The back-to-back and potential blowout may limit Barnes’ production, but I have to ride the hot hand tonight in Toronto.

Kings vs. Raptors Prediction and Pick

Neither side is particularly rested for this one. It’s a back-to-back with travel for Toronto, and the third game in four nights for Sacramento.

While I’m normally hesitant to take teams on a back-to-back, Sacramento’s recent travel – and overall play – washes that out.

The Raptors beat the Pelicans 119-106 as -8.5 favorites and the Magic 139-87 as -1.5 favorites in their last two home games. They’ll cover tonight against a poor Kings team.

Pick: Raptors -13.5 (-105)
