This has the potential to be a really fun game. In one corner is Luka Doncic, who is averaging a staggering 36.1 points per game. In the other corner is an extremely long, versatile Raptors’ frontcourt that has helped them record the seventh-best defensive rating in the league. It would certainly help the Raptors if they could get back Fred VanVleet (back), who is listed as questionable. However, not only did they win the last two games with him out, but both victories came by at least 30 points. Expect the Raptors to play the Mavericks tough and cover along the way.
No one can stop Luka Doncic, who has scored at least 30 points in every game, but the Raptors with Scottie Barnes and O.G. Anunoby have the defense to make it a lot tougher. They've won their last two games by a combined 73 points with Anunoby getting 11 steals in the process. Otto Porter made his debut for Toronto last time out, and there's a chance Fred VanVleet (back) could return to the lineup tonight. If VanVleet plays, it will be Toronto's first game at full strength. Take the points in a game that should go down to the wire.
