Mavericks vs. Raptors Betting Prediction

It's not looking great for the Raptors heading into tonight's game. Three of their top players' statuses for the clash are questionable, leaving them at risk of being severely handicapped performance-wise.

The Mavericks have a good chance to bounce back here and pick up a win. Assuming point guard Luka Doncic brings his A-game tonight, the physically shot Raptors could be in for a world of trouble. Expect the Mavericks to send the Toronto crowd home unhappy tonight.

Prediction: Mavericks -3 (-107)
