The Toronto Raptors were on the verge of completely capitulating following a five-game winning streak, as they came just a few shots away from losing their fourth contest in a row. Luckily, Fred VanVleet came to save the day and beat the 76ers, which has helped the latest Raptors odds turn slightly in Toronto’s favor.
Next up on the schedule is a matchup against former coach Dwane Casey and the rebuilding Detroit Pistons, who at least have the benefit of leaning on the No. 1 overall pick in the draft in Cade Cunningham. It should be exciting to watch him and high school teammate Scottie Barnes go back and forth.
While Detroit might only come into this game with two wins on the season, one of which came against a one-win Rockets team, it would be foolish to overlook a team coached by Casey with this much young talent.
Will the Raptors end up picking up their second win in a row? Or will Detroit pull off a stunning upset?

Toronto Raptors vs Detroit Pistons Prediction
As talented as Cunningham may be, and even though the Pistons have been playing better basketball of late, Toronto should be able to take home the victory here on the back of their exceptional depth.
Casey and his defense will have their hands full due to the fact any one of Toronto’s five starters could be capable of taking the game over on the offensive end of the floor. Detroit might hang around a bit, but Nick Nurse should expect a victory.
