The Toronto Raptors started 2022 in grand style by taking down the rival Knicks at home, as Pascal Siakam and the starting lineup were able to get hot on the offensive end. The latest Raptors odds suggest that they’ll stay hot against yet another Western opponent.

The Raptors will take on Gregg Popovich and the San Antonio Spurs. Toronto will face this team without some of their best players, as triple-double machine Dejounte Murray and Lonnie Walker have already been ruled out because they are in the league’s health and safety protocols.

Even with some big names out, Toronto must be wary of a Popovich-coached team that can and will lean on some solid young scorers in order to get the job done. Toronto could be upset if they overlook the Spurs.

Will Nick Nurse and his suddenly healthy squad start the new year with two consecutive wins? Will the Spurs defy the odds and take down Toronto on the road despite the fact they’re playing without Murray?

San Antonio Spurs vs Toronto Raptors Odds, Spread, Over/Under

The latest odds from WynnBET have Toronto as -5.5 favorites against the spread, with this squad -110 (bet $110 to win $100) to cover. Toronto is -230 on the moneyline, while San Antonio checks at +190 (bet $100 to win $270).

The over-under in this contest is 223, with the under coming in at -110 and the over listed at -110. While both of these head coaches have made a living off of strong defense, Vegas is expecting a shootout.

Toronto Raptors vs San Antonio Spurs Prediction

If Murray was playing, this is a whole different ballgame. Unfortunately, without one of their best on-ball defenders and scorers, the Spurs might find it tough to keep pace with Toronto’s starting lineup for most of the game.

There is still an avenue in which the Spurs can pull out a win, as Jakob Poeltl might be able to go to work against a smaller frontcourt, but Toronto should have enough perimeter firepower to cancel out that advantage and take home the win.
