The Toronto Raptors remain one of the most difficult teams in the league to figure out. Just a few days after Scottie Barnes dominated the Wizards and helped Toronto pick up a road win, they fell behind by as many as 34 points in a loss to the Trail Blazers. The latest Raptors odds are anticipating a slight bounce back tonight.

Toronto will welcome LaMelo Ball and the Charlotte Hornets to town, as they will try to gain ground on the No. 7 seed in the East. While the Hornets have the 28th-ranked defense in the league, their offensive attack comes in second place, one-tenth of a point behind the Jazz.

Nick Nurse’s chances of a victory in this game depend on how they can corral this offense. While they have slowed down stars in the past, the number of options Charlotte has at their disposal could make for a very challenging evening.

Will Toronto end up getting over .500 with a win against a fellow playoff hopeful in the East? Will the Hornets march up to Canada and unleash an offensive barrage Nurse is ill-equipped to stop?

Charlotte Hornets vs Toronto Raptors Odds, Spread, Over/Under

The over-under in this contest is 221.5, with the under coming in at -110 and the over listed at -110. The Raptors have some tremendous offensive players, but are they deep enough to keep pace with a team like the Hornets?

Toronto Raptors vs Charlotte Hornets Prediction

The Hornets are going to stretch this defense to breaking point, as Toronto has to worry about any one of six players potentially getting hot and taking over the game. Luckily, names like Fred VanVleet and Pascal Siakam will help them go toe-to-toe with this team.

This game figures to be as tight as they come, and the winner may be decided by which team can take care of the ball better. The Hornets could easily come out with the win, but given how volatile Toronto can be, a Raps victory should surprise no one.
