Raptors Game Tonight: Raptors vs Timberwolves Odds, Starting Lineup, Injury Report, Predictions, TV Channel for Feb. 16

The Toronto Raptors have crashed back down to earth in alarming fashion, as their eight-game winning streak was followed by a tough loss against the Nuggets and an embarrassing 30-point blowout at the hands of the Pelicans. The latest Raptors odds suggest that a third straight loss might be in order.

Nick Nurse has a tough game to close out the first half of the season, ad he has to face off against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This means taking on a big three of Karl-Anthony Towns, Anthony Edwards, and D’Angelo Russell. The coach heading this operation is Chris Finch, who was a Raptors assistant last year.

Minnesota is in the playoff hunt in the West, firmly distinguishing itself from the laughingstock that the franchise has been in recent years. Toronto may have Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, and Scottie Barnes ready to go, but that may be enough to slow this team down.

Will Toronto limp into the All-Star break without any momentum? Will they somehow find the energy needed to send the Timberwolves back into the loss column right before VanVleet’s All-Star cameo?

Minnesota Timberwolves vs Toronto Raptors Odds, Spread, Over/Under

The latest odds from WynnBET have Toronto completely even against the spread, making this game a pick-em for the time being. Toronto is -115 on the moneyline, while Minnesota checks in at -105 (bet $105 to win $100).

The over-under in this contest is 230.5, with the under coming in at -110 and the over listed at -110. With all of the offensive talent on display for both Toronto and Minnesota, the over might cash.

Toronto Raptors vs Minnesota Timberwolves Prediction

Nurse should be able to exploit a Minnesota defense that is far from elite, but he will have his work cut out for him when it comes to keeping their firepower in check. If Towns gets off to a hot start, that could be trouble.

With the Timberwolves playing some exciting basketball at the moment and Toronto apparently willing to use four big men and no guards off the bench, slowing down Russell and Edwards might prove difficult. Another loss could force Toronto to regroup after the All-Star game.
